I won't be at day 18 until next Tuesday, but mine has been running consistently at 53-55%. I was just wondering what I should be shooting for next week.

I just candled mine at day 14 today, and I'm a little disappointed. I can only see one moving chick in my Marans eggs, out of 13. I think I have a few more good Ameraucana eggs, but they are just so hard to see.

Congrats on the pips! I can't wait to hear how it goes.

Can't wait to hear an update! How dare your son not want to bound out of bed on hatching day!!

Hey Gumpsgirl! COngrats on your pips. All the ones that were going to hatch have hatched for me. Sadly only 1 of my ameraucanas hatched and 2 died in the shell and the rest were not fertile. 13 of my RIRs have hatched or are in the process. 3 were dead in the shell drowned poor things. the others were not fertile. So I will take pictures once everyone is dried and in the brooder. Keep us updated gumpsgirl!

OKAY! Here's the update as of 2:00. I have 8 Delawares that have pipped and 5 Blue Orpingtons! I can hear them peeping away! If I get close to the bator and make peeping noises, they answer me back!!! I keep telling them, "Come on little chickies, come on!" I just pray they will make their appearance BEFORE I have to leave this evening.

At least some of them anyways.
