EGGS ARE HERE! Prepare yourself for the next 21 days *DAY 21 PICS*

[cherndon712]

I've made it to day 15, going to candle tonight (didn't get to yesterday) and see how we're going!! I have button quail eggs due to hatch Thursday, but they were pretty bad when I got them, so I'm not getting my hopes up!!
Way to go, Denise!! Can't wait to see your fluffy butts!!

Can't wait for your hatch! My power keeps going off, in seven degree weather of course, so I'm scrambling to keep babies in the brooder from freezing to death. If I disappear, that's what's going on. Good luck, Deniece!

Hey Geoaware, howdy neighbor. Got any extra hens you want to get rid of. Laying ones

How about extra eggs? I can't keep up with demand here.

Been out shoveling snow myself this morning. I'm going to be really upset if it snows when they start to hatch, and I miss the whole thing.

Ok, going to move the eggs now. Wish me luck

Ok, I've moved the eggs out of the turner. Boy that turner is noisy. It's so much quieter now.

I didn't see any movement. But I guess this puts me on official IBW.

Good Luck!

Gee, I've checked 10 times now, no movement, no pipping, no hatching, no chirping. Oh wait, it's only day 18 Whew.

And the wait begins in earnest now!

Hi Lone.....we are going to try and hatch a few of our own so we can start to build the flock (we have a roo and three girls). We can't keep up with our own demand...i think we owe 7 dozen (and that takes time at 3 eggs a day production).

Snow still falling lightly here...looks like only about half an inch in total and sun is trying hard to poke through the clouds. We hate the snow

I have 5 production reds that need new homes! $15 for all 5, they are 3 years old-good condition. They came as a set, and I only wanted the EE's and a Leghorn they had. I'm close to Cheyenne, but will be in Ft Collins next Monday 1/28 and could bring them along if anyone wants them!

I tried to send you a PM, but your box was full. How well are they still laying? If they are still laying pretty good, it might not be a bad idea to get me through for a little bit till the babies grow up. I just hate to turn customers away cuz they don't come back.

Gary, got your e-mail. I've got chicks on Craigslist. I bring in 50 and brood them and sell them. Plus I have a bunch in the bator due to hatch on the 24th.

But if you are going to start hatching, them then you must have hatching eggs. I

hatching eggs.

What kind of chickens do you have? I'll have some breeders soon, but it will be awhile before they start to lay
