I know! I was actually shock.... Im watching the temp cause it was on the low side this morning and i heard the faint chirp..... I didnt expect anything today maybe some egg rocking but no pipping... Im a nervous wreck...i now can relate to how my husband must have felt when i was in labor ...

Squee! I just went out to the coop to check on my broodies. One of them was off the nest for her daily dust bath/feeding so I picked up the egg to see if I could hear anything and the egg moved! I'm so eggcited! Hope they both are alive, I didn't check the second one.

how exciting cotton!!

got home from a quick trip to the store went to check temp and humidity levels and saw an egg move... went back in 5 mins later to find it had pipped!
so i have 2 pips... have heard the faintest of peeping (i sooo thought i imagine it ) ((knowing myself i probably did

aww thanks for the hugs chickster... my 4 year old keeps telling them to hatch already, she's excited but not nearly as nervous as i am. hoping to she will be home or up to catch it zipping .....

still here waiting .

Wow, I'm so excited for you all! I lockdown tonight, hoping to see some internal pips when I candle them for the last time!

I had to candle my 2nd bator . For the past couple of days I kept smelling a stinker. My son said it was worse today. I found it alright. It had a small tiny pin hole in it. It had only be n for 2 weeks. My daughter thought we could wax it like we did the other one. Not this one. YUCK!!

It is very exciting! I can't wait till they hatch!
