I have the sneaking suspicion you guys want me to act like a fool more than I already am.

I've been tapping on mine to try and wake them up LOL!!!!

I thought about bringing one of my babies in here and seeing if that chirping would help LOL!

So, right after I asked if you had any action, I went back and checked mine, and sure enough, a PIP!!!!

My first pip of the season. It's one of the SLWs.

Don't you love your SFHs? I thoroughly enjoy mine.

Oh wow that is great! Sending you good hatch vibes

and yes I do love my SFH, I got interested in the to begin w/ b/c my DH is from Sweden. I was looking for something to kind him a piece of 'home'- found out about the SFH and that got me started back into chickens again after 10 yrs without any

it does stimulate them- I have my brooder next to the bator- they can hear each other

Peach ? WOw!

Haha I totally did cluck to mine though, and they started peeping at me! When they hatched they would look up and try to get to me. SO cute.
