EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[BullChick]

@LittleLakePhil How is your wife?
@MotorcycleChickHow are you and Duckling?
@BantyChooks Thanks for your help with the question. How ISS Maple?
@Fire Ant Farm I hope you are feeling better. Any new chick pictures.

I'm dealing. The ear hurts at odd times. Duckling is much better.
I texted Ken. He rarely has his phone on, but I at least tried.

She came home from the hospital last evening.

@10AcreChickI have 84 after the first candeling. I hatch on shares 50/50. I get all my HRIR and then a share of the EE blue and green egg layers. What are yours?

Sorry you fell! Are you okay? It's raining here too. What a mess!
Thank you for the coffee!

Yea, I'm fine. Sure surprised the chickens as I fell into their feeding pans. Me and 30 hens going everywhere.
2&1/4 inches since yesterday morning

I suppose I need to candle the 8 eggs I put in my incubator sometime soon

Do they have a clue what is wrong?

I'm not sure what you mean by "shares". Not that chick-educated, I guess! I have nine eggs, this is my test batch to see if my homemade incubator is a success before I put in as many as will fit. I had just separated my flock out when I decided to do the test batch, so there are 7 brown eggs (Australorp or BO mothers) and 2 blue eggs (EE mothers). The fathers could be BO or EE, I have two roosters. It was just what I could collect in two days. So far, 100% fertility and 100% development! Air cells great! I am hoping to fit at least 40 in for the big hatch, have some friends who want some.
