Day 22 and waiting

[ilovechickens]

I have a Buff Cochin who is sitting on Ameracauna/Cochin Eggs. (She adopted them because I took all of her eggs) As of today, she is getting up, and laying back down. She has done this numerous times today. I can see the eggs, 2 of them, and the third one I am unable to see. Is this normal behavior?

They are Pipping!!!! my hen is off of the eggs drinking about a pint of water and I was watching the eggs, they were being cracked open little by little, how long do they do this before they are free

it can take up to 24 hours for them to completely hatch

your gonna have to tell me if these chicks have the leg feathers of the cochin....and the egg laying color of the ameraucana that would be cool in my eyes lol kinda what i am hoping to get when i hatch eggs for the first time when they come in next week. *crosses fingers*
