Just went in to just look at my eggs in lockdown and saw one rock foward than backwards. 2x. It was so awesome. How long after this does it take for them to come out?

YAY for rocking! I never noticed mine rocking, so I couldn't tell you there. But from pip to hatch for me was less than 24 hours.

I have already bid on and won more eggs!

Should be shipped tomorrow.

Yes, I've got it bad!

Hatch rate only 30% because of the cold weather?I've been having great hatch rates.Granted I'm not in PA,however our weather has been unuasually cold here this winter.Most days have not been over 45-50 and too many lately have been in the teens and low 20's.I locked down 586 Jumbo XLDs,30 Jumbo Texas A&M,and 20 Italians.I hatched 573 out,lost 1.What is her M/F ratio? Housing? Lighting? Mine are under a tarped barn natural light during the day and only lights from brooders next pen over after dark.1m/3f on all but the Italians.I only started with a trio of those,but have hatched out many from them to add.
