Thanks! I'm so excited about it. The hard part will be not being able to watch them hatch,,, she doesn't have a glass top! I was so worried she'd put all this effort into her tiny little eggs and they wouldn't hatch since she is so young. But every single one is forming.

Charlotte will hatch a great bunch of babies. I just know it! Expect them early if they are anything like the ones I hatched under a broodie bantam brahma a couple years ago. I went out to check her on the morning of the 21st day and she already had to 2 little peeps under her. The broodies do way better than we do in an incubator. I can't wait to see what they look like!

I'm curious about the Silkie gene and whether it is dominant I might have short, fat, flutty, 5 toed, blue babies!
