Day 27 No Progress Under Broody Call

[chickens really]

I would wait..Once they externally pip it can be over 24 hours before they hatch.

Yes get your bator up and running just in case and also brooder set up. You just never know. The rest I'll give over to @WVduckchick she is the expert on assisting.

That was hilarious about water color classes.

I'll get on that task tonight! At least I will feel like I'm doing something useful!

Haha! Welcome! It's probably going to be another 40+ messages of me going "Went to the hutch. Still no babies." with my broody rolling her eyes in exasperation at me!

Definitely wouldn't hurt to have an incubator on standby, but I don't expect she will have any problems.

I had a nice surprise when I went out this morning. I saw an empty egg shell under my final sitting duck hen. Then I saw a duckling worming its way out of another shell. She decided to sit in a tight spot, so its hard to see what's going on, but I saw at least 2 ducklings!

I would be just like you and be a nervous wreck. How fun though when they do hatch!
