July Online Mystery Hatching Egg Swap Now Closed

[mrheinz77]

Sign ups are now open for the August swap. This is a Mystery Swap again and has fewer categories so it will be more of a mystery.

So as of this morning I have one Blue Copper Marans and one Showgirl Silkie (chiqita) from last month's swap hatched!!! I have quite a few more pips and will hopefully have a few more chicks running around when I get home!

Oh the blue copper was from my swap partner. Your dark egg has pipped, not sure if it has hatched yet.

 

[chiqita]

doh!

 

[madamwlf]

doh!

Your little egg did hatch though. I had quite a few chicks waiting to be removed from the hatcher!!

Just locked down our 4 wiggling swap eggs and 3 wiggling FNNEEs! Hoping for a great hatch!

How are everyone else's eggs doing? I still have 4 days before lockdown on the first set!

I have lockdown TOMORROWWW! and Monday! The turkeys all look like they made it, I have about 1/3 of the other eggs that will go, I had bad chicken luck this month. You people better tell me what I have!

I shoveled all the eggs into 2 incubator today and changed my hatcher. DH is unhappy with the humidity control on one of the bators and wants to use it as a hatcher instead because I watch the humidity in there like a hawk. I've been searching for a cabinet incubator, but so far I keep missing them! I was 10 min late on a brinsea 380, was soo bummed!

All my silkies have decided to go broody along Whit miss Dolly the Orphington bully. So that's three broodies waiting for chicks. And 3 still sitting on their chicks. CHICKENS< YOUR JOB IS TO LAY EGGS!
