Day 21 and I got two chicks! Lots of pics!

Egg turner has been turned off temporarily for safety of newly hatched chick! It is on top of the other eggs and even if I quickly opened bator to relocate chick it would probably just go right back up there! Hope the other one hatches soon!! DH is building the brooder!

Second pip was at 9:17 am no change I am worried....

Dont know what to do....

dont open bator keeps coming to mind!

don't open is still the best course of action. Last year I had chicks take over 12 hours to break out.

Congrats on your chick. Hatchin vibes going your way for a continued safe hatch.

Thanks for all the good vibes! Still waiting! Here is a picture of the brooder DH built today. He is going to cut a hinged door in the top for access but the top comes off and bottom too! For easy cleaning!

The model is CJ our GSD

I said perch up not pooch up!

 

[The Chicken People]

My hatch rate is 100% as of now! Both hatched and will be in the new brooder in the morning!
I cant believe the stress! We will lock down the other 12 tomorrow night. At least I will get some sleep between hatches!

I am soooooo jealous!1 I want my girls to go broody and DH thinks I should just buy an incubator!!

Aww, thanks for the pictures. It's tiding me over until mine hatch (hopefully tomorrow).
