Yayy! Hope you have a great hatch! I was super excited when I started my first (current) batch! I got the eggs the night I do babysitting, and was bouncing the entire night waiting to get home.

You'll get more excited before lockdown! <3

Soon you will be addicts like the rest of us! It's so awesome seeing the embryos developing when you candle them. I hatched my own chickens and pheasants for the first time last year. It's cool having a little being developing in there. I think everyone should do it at least once.
