July 2022 Hatch-A-Long

Don't worry, I think I'm staring at mine enough for the both of us. Still no peeps or wiggles or pips. They like to keep me in suspense I guess. Hope something happens soon...my right butt cheek is falling asleep....
As much as I feel bad for you I am hoping no pips till tomorrow. If you get one I will be freaking that maybe I have one. Lol.

I sent the girl that will watch them a couple of pip pictures and told her if she sees that please text me a picture. I almost brought my run cam in to watch them but then I couldn't check on the others....

I usually get a few pips on Day 19. With my incubators anyway...yours may be different. I'm just going with my past experience. Who knows? Neither one of us might get a pip til tomorrow. If that's the case, I will have driven myself crazy by then though...I'll think they've all died or something. I do hope something happens with mine today. I need reassurance after all the babies I lost this time around. I'm too worried the others won't make it either.

I understand that. I have had no luck with shipped eggs before this group. This group is doing great so now I am worried something will happen now and I will still have bad luck.

Mine have pipped a few hours before day 20 I think, well when I have noticed. I have only had 1 in the incubator and 2 under broodys. I know the one in the incubator pipped before I had to go to work, so maybe about 8 hrs before day 20?
 
My 5 year old had the same dream! She told me this morning. It's all about eggs and chicks in our house at the moment!
It's all about eggs here too. My 2 yr old got into the fridge while I was checking humidity in the bators and got a whole carton of eggs out. He took it into his room and proceeded to smash them all, and even ate some :sick Just spent 15 mins cleaning it all up. His poor mattress may never recover. Ugh. So gross. Also, what a waste. Destroyed all the new eggs from my barred Rocks that just started laying. In a matter of 3 mins while I was adding water to incubators. Sigh.
 
@UThobbyfarmer , thank you so much for the advice!

Everyone else, please learn from my mistake. Don't drop eggs. My guinea held on for four days after the accident. Four days. Passed yesterday. Day 17. Feathers, feet, she had everything. I have a new appreciation for eggs now.
