If it's been that long, I'd give her a little help. They do get exhausted after a long stretch like that.

Well, I started to help a bit, but then there was blood so I stopped. None of them are making any progress today. I lost one last time because I didn't help, so I'm just a little antsy about it this time around.

Hey D~ How are you doing? Any more progress? Congratulations on the Orp being blue.

What color are your Giants? Hang in there!

 

[LoneCowboy]

I think they are blue too. Right now they are just that really dark fluff color. Can't really tell what they will end up like.

I'm going out now to move the 5 week olds to the other side of the breeder coop, so I can move the new little ones out there. I sure wish these chicks would do something. I'm getting worried.

Hi, just wondering what does IBW stand for? I read it in the subject...

 

[horsejody]

I'm guessing it is intense bator watch or something like that.

 

[MissPrissy]

You guessed right. LOL

IBW = Intense Bator Watch!

Today is my day 18 and believe me the tense is correct!

Congrats on your hatch!

Where's the photos?

 

[LoneCowboy]

Their coming. I keep hoping the others well get their little fuzzy butts in gear and get out of the shells. There are huge holes in 4 eggs takes up about 2/3 of the circumference of the egg, and they are just sitting there doing nothing. It's making me crazy

 

[Smitty's Farm]

OK, tell them to WAKE UP....the suspense is driving me crazy! LOL! Come on Chickies!

I know this has got to be so intense for you w/ them taking their sweet time. Can't wait to see pics. BTW, I'm about to purchase my first batch of hatching eggs....I'm so Eggcited! I'll keep checking in for updates.

These threads drive me crazy....I really want to read the last post each time, but I force myself to go from the start so I can get the whole story...its sooooo egg-citing.
