Hey, hey, no abusing the new chickie-mama!

Double-teamed by two Kathys, that is sooo not fair. LOL.

Do you think we could get Tom to take a picture of that?

OK, stop it! Yer all freaking me out here! I swear! I had a dream about this very scene last night! Only it was ME with my face plastered to the top of the bator!!

Kinda weird, considering there's not a single fertile egg in sight around this place!

****It's almost 9:30 a.m. Tuesday and Day 19 is more than half over now. Day 20 starts at 6 p.m. for the eggs from halo and my own BR eggs. The remaining Ameraucanas were put into the bator a few hours after Kathy's were, but still on Day One, so they may be a tad later....or maybe not! The Ameraucana eggs I've hatched have usually been pretty much pipped early on Day 20.

Day 20 has begun and .....

Is it still snowy and cold up there? You know, these are Florida birds, they might not want to hatch with it being so cold up there!

 

[speckledhen]

It's rainy, just very rainy and windy and cold. No snow at my house, thank goodness. I'd think I'd have pips by midnight, though. The BBS Ameraucanas are PA birds, so they'd think they were in a heatwave down here.

Sigh. Still waiting.

It's not time yet .... tomorrow is the day!

Now, get your nose off that bator, and get some sleep tonight .... tomorrow will be a busy day!

Is your back hurting yet, from leaning over and looking too much?

 

[speckledhen]

No, no backache yet. I've taken antihistamine and may just go to bed. Day 21 begins Wednesday evening at 6 p.m., so no one is late, but I've always had the Rocks and Ameraucanas begin pipping early on Day 20 and that's where we are now. Yawn....
