obably from power outage/temp drop, it's the one closest to air vent. Moved my next 6chicken eggs to styro for lock down and surprise! Ones already pipping shell, can't believe I forgot bantams sometimes pip as early as day 18. Here's a dry pic from last nights hatch


Aww they r very cute!:love
 
The last chick hatched and it is a girl! So looking over everyone after they were dry it appears I have 4 boys and 5 girls. 5 girls is the perfect #, so that is great. I will post some pictures hear soon. Later on today I am going to candle the mixed eggs and see what kind of damage the outage did to them. I hope most of them are still going strong.

So glad it hatched out good and gave you another little girl.
 
Hey peachncrm37, is there any action going on with your duck eggs yet? Today is supposed to be their due date right? I'm very eager to see how they do.

Yup today is day 28!!! When I left for work this AM two had externally pipped and the third was internally pipped and moving like crazy. I suspect to have little ducklings when I get home or by tomorrow morning at the latest!!

If the third has not externally pipped by the time I get home I will safe hole it!

Correction surprise Cochin =) with four more piping shell this morning, hopefully have four chicks and a pooped egg by the time I get home today, thank goodness the rest of my batches are set farther apart, going to have to adjust some dates to account for bantams.
