Will do. Turned the humidity up last night and did a quick candling. All seems to be just fine in all 16....

day 21 for me is tommorrow, 12 are my 1st shipped eggs of the year. Why is the first set of eggs you set for the season seem to take the longest to hatch and are the hardest to wait for

Hang in there ! Let us know how it's going 1 It will help distract us from the bator in our house !

 

[Jenski]

Clay, what kind of bator were you using?

Oh, and don't forget to snap those pics . . .

Clay has a nice bator that he got for free - I am still very jealous! But I'll let him tell you about it.

My daughter said she heard peepage coming form bator this afternoon before i was home form work. I told her it was to early, well i just checked the bator and my hand bumped it and I've got peepage coming from the bator!!!!!

( but maybe that is a little early as Thursday is hatch day????)

 

[Chicken Woman]

Mine aren't due until Thursday but I don't think i will hear peeps as the brooder is in the same room with 7 chicks !
