We got 3 hatchlings this morning, can see a few have unzipped so expect they will be out by time we get home and lots of pipped eggs.
 
I nearly went into withdrawals while the site was down this morning. lol! Those were my prime BackyardChicken forum hours. :lau

I put my Mottled Orpingtons, Crested Cream Legbars, and Whiting's True Blues on early lockdown today because after final candling the Legbars air cells are already changing shape like they're going to hatch so I bet I'll see some peeps on day 19-20!
My final count on lockdown is 10 Mottled Orps, 4 CCLs, and 3 WTBs!
Started with 33, 11 infertile, 5 quitters. I was told to expect 50% fertility with the Orps though so I'm still happy!
Fingers crossed that all 17 peeps hatch successfully! :fl:jumpy:jumpy:jumpy

I missed it too!! I needed my "peeps!!"
 
Whoo hoo! They're just late bloomers! Remind me how many eggs are on lockdown?
I've only got 4 in there. This is my first time so I used eggs from my ducks to try it. All 4 are still moving around inside. After these hatch I have 12 shipped eggs under my hen. I'm probably going to take 6 back To the incubator.
