Well thanks guys

i particularly like the zipper joke.
Eggs are still just sitting there, looking oval and not entertaining at all, yet mysteriously my attention remains riveted!!! (cue the twilight zone music please) Can't wait till morning so I can stare at them all over again. I took two days off work just to facilitate the staring (yes, I have a problem!

I know what you mean - I stare at mine all the time!!! I plan my hatches for the weekends but if it goes into Monday, then I call off sick!!!

Good luck with your hatch - I'm at day 15.

[bangor777]

Well, they are still there.

no peeps, no rocking, nothing happening. day 19 today. I'm sure these babies will come on day 21 (when I'm at work!) Still having fun though.

Good Luck you will have some cute babies very soon

great, now i am addicted to your egg hatching scenario too!

glad the zipper thing helped for a micro second!

maybe you could install cameras so we could all watch. we'll all need a 12 step program and those straight jackets mentioned earlier though!

Pull up a chair....(or sit crosslegged on the kitchen island with me). There's plenty of coffee!

Of course...day 21 is when they are supposed to hatch!!

That just means you did your job well...keeping the temps within the proper range, etc. I'm on day 18 and started looking for eggs yesterday! There is no one selling silkies in this area so I think I'm going to get a dozen silkies eggs and see how I do selling the chicks.
