Ok kids are at lunch. I’m in the room candling lol.

Here is the lightest egg in color & black & white.View attachment 3074160View attachment 3074161
I can see the beginnings of something!


This is the next lightest. There is a weird line moving around inside with the yolk. It moves when I turn the egg. Any ideas?

How long is the class keeping the chicks for?

Just 2 weeks until they go to their new homes.

They will never forget this! My son's 1st grade class hatched ducklings. Everyone pitched in to buy the eggs, something that happened in first grade every year.

Alas, once the eggs were set, COVID hit and the schools ended up closing for the remainder of the year. His teacher still incubated the eggs, and shared photos and videos with the kids, but I know she and they were disappointed. Still, it was special.

The next year, I got to substitute teach in first grade right after the ducklings hatched. The kiddos were so enamoured...and my little guy (then a second grader) was so excited to see both mom AND ducklings after school let out that day!

I quickly candled all the eggs before I left at 4, and added more water to my shoestring wick to hopefully keep the humidity through Monday.

Here are a few more eggs that look promising!

Egg G, see shadow on the left!

Egg O (the white one I showed the kids!)

These are the two lightest eggs. I have to keep myself busy this weekend! Positive thoughts that everything will work out ok through the weekend!

I’ve never been this excited for a Monday morning to come!
