Ok so I didn't want to worry, but 2 of the rockers have smaller air cells and I am a bit worried about where the chick will pip. Is it ok to pip straight out of the shell without popping into the air cell?

Day 7 here, candled the eggs in the incubator & it looks like 4 are developing, 2 EEs & 2 marans/orp crosses. Haven't candled the ones under the broodies yet.

The broodies are sharing a nest box & they keep stealing each other's eggs & growling at each other. I hope this doesn't mean they will fight over the chicks...

Starring at the eggs... starring at the eggs... need coffee... starring at the eggs...

I AM NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HATCHING.

Just set 9 banty cochin eggs under a broody EE. Eggs are pushing a week old, and the EE is a first time broody. So we'll see what happens.

Start eating those chickens or you will going to find yourself in a big chicken problem!

Unfortunately you are right, even when I go to bed very late, yesterday (or actually today! ) it was 2:30 am i still get up 6:15-6:30 am! 4 ouers of sleep aren't so bad .

I've yet to see a hen candle an egg...maybe I'm just never there at the right time.
