Hi all! Last night we put the remaining eggs we had left, in for the last 3 days (a rough 18 days, started out with about 42 from different breeders, and now down to I think 16 total...grrrr.) LOL! So last night day 18, this afternoon we had one hatch already! A beautiful little splash silkie! I call it our little silver surfer! Its gorgeous! Anyhow, I thought maybe it was one of the first collected and as soon as it felt its world stop turning (in the auto turner) it thought "whew, was I getting sea sick! I'm outta here!" time to come out!! Now, for the nail-biting of the next couple days. We have one that is pipped on the side, about right in the middle, we are using the egg carton method again with a clear egg carton this time so I can see more. Another one pipped on top. Wish me luck! Take care all! Angela
Thats great! I was so happy to when i hatched my first chicks! its the best experience ive had. good luck on the rest of your hatch!
