Well congrats on what you have so far!!! And hope for the next batches. Everyone has bad hatches at times, newbies especially, we catch on eventually.

I am SOOOO needing a dose of my own medicine today. I have two BBS chicks out, but still waiting on 3 to pip, and also 4 lavender eggs to pip. I REFUSE to loose any more eggs this month and if they dont pip soon, I'm going in!!!

 

[kyeschicks]

I have 2 pips!!!! is the humidity ok at 59% - 60%

another pip on the silkies. 3/5 pipped.

I'm not reallly liking you right now....

Although I do know that one of the lavender eggs is trying to pip. I can hear it tapping on the inside of the egg.

And YES I did open the bator, and YES I did pick it up and listen to it, and YES I did candle everything else to try and see movement. I know, I know, practice what you preach right? Well I couldn't take it anymore, not after loosing the last two batches of eggs!!!

TEMPTED!!!! There's not enough duct tape to keep me from lifting that lid just to be sure everyone is still in there.

My first hatch had 5 that didn't hatch

so now I'm polly paranoid. I'll be putting 9 more in the hatcher tonight, then I'm working the Women's Show tomorrow so I won't be able to peek at them, and Saturday is pretty full too, anything that keeps me away from the house will probably be better for this batch. I have NO self restraint!
