Due to hatch on the 31st

[Lacrystol]

I have 24 silkie eggs due to hatch on the 31st of this month anyone with me? One of them came to me with a loose Air Cell when I candled him two days ago he was swimming around having a ball. This will be my First Loose Air Cell hatching. ha ha ha ha.. crossing fingers...

I'm sorry I'm not with you but it's funny you said, " One of them came to me with a loose Air Cell when I candled him two days ago he was swimming around having a ball." I alway say she.

I had put 12 silkie eggs in the bator and 6 hatched and don't you know my one silkie went broody at the same time with 7 eggs and hatched all 7.

Good luck I hope you get someone to join you.

I put eggs under my broody on July 9, so if the next day is Day 1, then mine should hatch on July 31 too. I don't know though, when I compare what I saw when I candled, a couple of them looked more advanced that the other. I'm going to start 'pacing the floor' on July 28. This is the first time I have ever tried hatching anything!
