Most of the Araucauna will probably be black.

Okay. That's what I was figuring. She didn't give two farts about me giving her gold and silver partridges for a week and a half solid, but I'm not sure if it's because she just wanted babies or because they were close enough colorwise

Well that's not black!

Ignore the one jn the egg, it's not part of this clutch and I'm pretty sure isn't going to end up making it either way
One in back is araucana and one in front is my Cornish. I completely forgot their down colors are probably going to look different enough to not have to worry about feeling for tails

I think he said most would be black

Yeah, he did, I'm just laughing cause I wasn't expecting a chipmunk. I was thinking mostly black or possibly a black and yellow were the only options.

I really just need to get more sleep, so I actually understand things the first time around.

They both look good, I'm in a rush trying to get things done for work so I'll look for pips in a couple hours

Candled all the eggs again (all 19 look great), took out the turner and put down the shelf liner. Lockdown technically starts tomorrow at 3, but I'm giving them a bit more time to get into position.

Another Cornish hatched over night. Second araucana is pipped. Hoping it hatches while I'm at work so I can bring all 4 down to Cheese.

I have a few that aren't, but they aren't laying yet. Must be hiding in the genes.

Much better.
