Day 18 is tomorrow!!

How's everyone hanging in?? Any progress with the hatching?? Not much happening here although I think a few of the eggs have moved a wee bit when I wasn't looking. My humidity is back to normal but it does bounce around a bit.
I put in time today getting last minute stuff for the brooder and than did some gardening since the weather turned out to be really nice for a change.
It's going to be another long night

Still nothing here. No pips, no egg rolling, no cheaping... nothing. My humidity is getting higher, it's at like 75 with no water

I don't know if I should open it or something. I've been keeping a close eye on it and clucking (my dh would laugh if he saw me) at the bator... and nothing.

Sounds like we are all about the same. Nothing new here. However, while I was at my nephew's graduation one egg moved enough that it is now touching another one. I know they weren't touching when I left. I am so nervous and glad we are all on the same day to stress together!!! Isn't this place great.

Still nothing. I'm so frustrated and nervous! Today I had to battle with keeping the humidity up instead of trying to get it to come down. Now it's sitting around 70.
I want to try and get some sleep but I think I'm going to have some caffeine instead so I can stay up longer. It's so nice to know others are in the same vote this weekend!!

Hang in there!

I was the same and finally went to bed, only to wake up to my first chick! Like they all say on here... a watched pot never boils! LOL

Well, I just put coffee on (it is 9:42 here).....come, we can all sit around the table and stress, drinking coffee, together!!!!!

My humidity was almost at 80, so I took that little bit of water out. It's sitting steady around 70. I don't know why it jumped like that. Let's hope I wake up to a pip, if not a chick. I'm stressed, I really want them to hatch!

I hope so. I hope we all do. I am seriously wondering how people survive this!!!

Ditto. I'm going to bed. The sooner I fall asleep, the sooner I wake up and start the pacing all over again.

Still nothing. I'm going to give myself another hour and than I think I'm going to hit the sack. Morning comes around way too fast with 5 kids bugging each other

. Hopefully we all wake up to some pips, or chirps or even better... a few chicks!!
