I'm just waiting for Thursday. Day 7 to candle my 30 eggs.

someday I will visit Ireland. Already have England and Scotland under my belt. Ireland has always been on my list.

Glad broody momma is happy with her babies. Good job on the assist.

Oh you must! This place is so stunning. I always wanted to visit, so getting to live here is amazing!

Which one? LOL I must confess I can't remember how many of these chicks I've assisted and which hatched by themselves. I know I helped at least 2 and Then there's the rescued one. For my next hatch I want them all to pop out unassisted and on time!

Thanks everyone for the compliments on Goosey and Aflack. I have had plenty of friendly chicks in the past, but none compare to these 2. They are my babies and they're spoiled rotten, haha.

The pictures are from a week ago. Goosey now has 1 inch feathers coming in and I'm impatiently waiting for those beautiful white curly feathers.

I was also completely taken by surprise with the ducklings I hatched. Why didn't anyone tell me waterfowl babies were so adorable?? I'm looking forward to more cute pics of your 2.

he still has veining?

Two ameraucana/orpington chicks, two pips in the OE eggs (two still intact) aaaaaand...still no action in the cream legbars. I really really really hope I get at least one. I'd love for both of them to hatch though. Then again, I really wanted FOUR to hatch, but with one clear and one early quitter. :/ As for the remaining two, one developed, but it was the one with the crack in the shell (repaired with nail polish) and the other one I couldn't tell. So...


I'm going to be especially bummed if *everything* but the CLs hatch. They were not cheap eggs.

HOPE FAITH

Good morning!

I took a nice graphic video of the poor stubborn chick, ya know, so all of you could watch it over your coffee and scrambled eggs! Hehe. Sorry I know it is gross but seeing as I only have 2 assists under may belt and you guys have many many more, though you could take a look and tell me my next move.

GOT IT!

I can't tell much from the video, except it looks like it's wing's tucked over it's head? It looks o.k. otherwise. I'll need to see more of the membrane to advice, sorry!

Shall I open it up more so you can see? It just looks so wet inside there, maybe it is just the bacterain? I HATE this! Seriously, this is my very very last egg out of the last 4 hatches in 3 weeks. After this we are done for the season. The others hatched Friday... please enjoy their cuteness to make up for the nasty video...
