I finally have a PIP!!!!! I am so excited!! The first one is just now starting!! This is day 21 for me!! I hope it makes it out!! This will be my first hatch ever!!!
Day 21 is tomorrow but my first hatch ever decided they wanted to be Valentine chicks. I had 6 eggs in the bator and at 4pm today the first hatched. The first and second to hatch are now in the brooder. The third and forth are in the bator still. Still waiting on numbers 5 and 6. Number 5 was the first to pip this morning and still nothing. Number 6 hasn't pipped yet.

So sorry about your little one crazychicken
My little Silkie chick didn't make it either. It was still peeping away when I left for the store and was laying beside the stuffed doggie dead by the time I got home
No Valentines chicks for me. It was just too tiny and weak I guess. Raising chickens is harsh at times.
ok..the hatch is over! it really was a weekend ordeal. I ended up with 20 fuzzybutts. started with 36, after day 14 candling ended up leaving 28 in the bator. 3 SLW, 5 BR, 8 BBS, and 4 Am. i'll post pics shorty!
