DAY 14. How are my air sacks?

[AmyLynn2374]

So.. I had to get up early to let the chickens and ducks out and I came to look at this thread... looks like i'll be waiting a little longer. Don't leave me hanging too long!! Hopefully you have some pips.

LOL xs2

sorry to say, there aren't any peeps coming from my bator and no pips that I can see.
I'm so super sad. I know it's still early, but come on! Just one egg, do something so I dont feel like the big fat failure I feel like right now.
Almost just want to go back to bed. ...wahhhh

I think I'm more disappointed for my boys. I was hoping they would have gotten to see ONE hatch before the weekend. They go visit their dad today after school until Sunday. Sure, I can record IF something happens, but we know its not the same. They both shot up out the bed this morning running to see if there were any hatches. So heartbreaking

Awww its just day 21 right? Dont panic yet. They could all start popping like popcorn!
I'm sorry your boys may miss it. If they start hatching today, could they come back home for a little while after school to take a peek?

I know how that feels. I had planned to set my last eggs to hatch on Easter, but since my hatches have been starting a couple days early I was afraid if I set them for Easter Sunday they would start hatching out Friday/Saturday and I thought my son's dad would ask to take him the Saturday before and I didn't want him to miss anything so we ended up setting for a Friday hatch. Of Course we ended up with a Wed/Thursday hatch.

That sucks.

So something had to have been off, right? Temp too low is my first guess. I dont understand this. I calibrated everything. Twice. Before setting and again at lock down.

yeah, I thought about pulling them early if something starts happening, but I didnt tell them that this morning. They get home at 3:30 and their dad doesnt get here until 6. Guess we'll see how the day goes.

Come on guys! Do something! Problem is after they externally pip, they usually take at least 8 hours (usually more in my experience) before they actually zip and hatch. So If they wait until tomorrow to pip. Then maybe they'll be back in time Sunday to see them hatch! I'm trying here.
