Cinco-de-Mayo Hatch-A-Long celebration!

[BarnyardChaos]

For those setting chicken eggs TODAY (April 13) or TOMORROW (April 14th), how about we do a tiny Hatch-A-Long to celebrate Cinco de Mayo??? Setting chicken eggs today or tomorrow should be a hatch date of May 4th-5th. It can be a themed event, and let's post creative photos of eggs and chicks, and our favorite recipes. What do you think?

I just set 42 eggs this morning to coincide with the May full moon on May 5th, and just realized that's Cinco de Mayo! It's nacho ordinary day, so let's shell-ibrate with some eggcelent stories and photos!

Okay, well, I just happen to have set 12 OEGB eggs today! Problem with that is that they are OEGB. And tend to hatch earlier...

You can still watch and cheer us on! And dress up your chicks for the holiday, and share your recipes, right?

I set 21 eggs, but last time mine hatched on day 19-20 so it may be May 2nd or 3rd that they hatch. But hatch day is May 4th.
