I miss hatching!

 

[BigBlueHen53]

Sorry Blue, that‘s hard. Do you think she had an egg break inside?

Not sure. There wasn't much of that grittiness in there, so if she did, she must have passed it all. It was just a tiny bit and it was like finely crushed oyster shell. Does that sound like a broken egg?

Yup!

I miss hatching!

This was my 1st hatch, and I think it went great!

And of course, as soon as the incubator is on lockdown.... I get a broody . But she's also my 1st broody, so I was very excited

 

[BigBlueHen53]

I hope she recovers for you.

Thanks.

You can sneak a couple of chicks under her after they hatch.
