Are you ready for this?! Day 26 & pipping!!

[willow]

Well, I guess it pays to follow you gut feelings!

Here's the update-
Day 19: Had 2 hatch, 1 by itself and 1 I had help due to dry membrane.

Day 21: nothing

Day 24: nothing, I asked what to do and told to start opening some because they were most likely dead. I opened 3 that were formed and ready to hatch but no go. I opened 1 more and it was alive but it's belly was not closed yet. I'll tell you, I almost started to cry I felt so bad about killing it.

I figured that if 1 was alive maybe 1 more might be so I decided since I don't have any others hatching this week that I would just leave them until I needed the 'bator.

Day 26: We are pipping!!

I was going to take them out tonight and toss them. Luckly, I pulled the pip out first!

I'll keep everyone up to date on my late bloomers!

Oh wow! Congrats. I think I will leave mine in for a few days after D day just to be sure. Never know.

Thats great news!!! Sometimes, like you said, you just HAVE to go with your gut feelings.

I'm pretty sure now that the thermometer has to be off! It stayed at 99-101 the whole time. But at least they are hatching!!
