first sucessful hatch complete!!

[BUG126]

Our first successful hatch was complete lastnight. WOOHOO! We started with 27 eggs, 2 cracked, 4 were infertile, 1 was an early quitter, 3 died in shell after pipping, and 17 hatched!!! I had to help 3 out because they were HUGE and couldnt turn in their shells. The kids & I are so excited, DH....not so much. I didnt realize how bad the house would smell once they started hatching. yuck!

Tell me, when did you know that you needed to help?

I waited until they had been pipped for over 13 hrs and their movement & peeping had all but stopped. It was very nerve wracking helping them out.
