I put my eggs in the incubator the night of the 8th. I am not sure if I start counting on that night as one or the 9th as one, but mine should hatch about the same time as y'alls. I have tried once before and due to some problems, none hatched. Yes, I admit, I cried. One was a Cochin that was almost fully formed. I am counting days and trying to learn. We learned a little about candling the last attempt. I am so addicted to my chicks. I started with one rooster a friend gave me. Now, I have 23 hens and 6 roosters of various breeds. People laugh when I tell them my chicks all have personalities. But, they do and I love each one. Learning as I go. Thank you to each person that posts on here. This site is one of my major sources of information.
