Icelandic Chickens

I saw another new pip this morning before I left for work, so I'm hoping for at least 3 or 4 fuzzies by the time I get home

Nope, they started the same time.

Wow, that is one over-achieving EE

No way! Those Icelandic's better hurry up and pip and hatch before that EE!

Ryan, Was it one of your own eggs? Or was it shipped also?

I think that may be why the EE's are pipping first. I think fresh eggs that never travel have all kinds of advantages that shipped eggs don't. Next year, you'll have to try a head-to-head with your own fresh Icelandic vs. EE eggs!!!!
