She let me have a peek earlier, but I didn't have camera ready. Doh! It's a girl! She was sleeping. So cute! I can't wait to take pictures & share them here!

Been a slow day kinda but today is only day 21. 12 have hatched so far and a few more have pipped. Still 26 eggs to go. I heard Marans eggs took a little longer. Most of my RIR's have hatched.
I mixed my colors up for fun, so who knows what they'll end up looking like. 2 hatched from a buff rooster over a porcelain hen, they're the dark greys with the brownish faces. The other 2 were from the same buff rooster over a blue hen.
Thanks for your kind words, I had him longer than anything in my life besides my children.
Im finally home now and all 11 of Little Lady's hatched.
I will get a better photo tomorrow.
Now on to the next hatch. I have 2 pips of the 9 so far, but on is pipped on the wrong end. Do I intervene or leave it alone? I've had to assist a few over past few hatches from being shrink wrapped so I feel confident that I can assist if needed, just news to know if it can still hatch on its own or not?
Candled Buffys eggs due Monday and 2 were further along than the rest so put them in homemade, both are internally pipped with much of the air sack showing unlike the other 4 she's sitting on yet. After these fast hatch is Reds 12 then I think ill be done for the year I hope.
Your cat was beautiful. So sorry for your loss.they are like your kids especially after so long.I have a 13 1/2 year old cat too and so far hes ok ...driving me crazy wanting to eat all the time as usual always been a huge pig. but I guess the day will come for him too not too long.
Then agian he may outlive me! LOL
They can hatch on there own at the wrong end .Is he pipped thru to fresh air ?if so hes fine.
