Bay Area BYCers!

They should be out soon, right at that moment when they first pip I always feel like it's going to take them forever to get out of their shell, but before I know it they're out and rolling around the incubator. I have to make myself walk away and keep busy with something, or I'm constantly glued to the incubator during lockdown!

First chick hatched at 11:20 this morning and I got to watch the whole thing! Second one is almost out already and we have 3 others still pipping 3 others we're waiting on. I'm so proud of myself
