welcome to the club.

what kind of eggs? I set mine on the 3rd and am expecting hatch around the 23rd. total of 65 eggs.

If you are anything like us we are getting ready for some long hours sitting and waiting.

good luck and keepthe thread going with updates when you start to candle.

I'm watching how things are going on this one!!!!! I sure hope and pray you have a magnificent hatch...Remember to keep a really good eye on that humidity and temp....I don't think I mentioned it when you came by the farm, but Walmart has some very inexpensive thermometers and hygrometers (that are digital/batter operated)....We use 2 of these in our incubators to be sure that our temperature is accurate! The little thermometers that come with the incubators are often not accurate, unfortunately!

Great hatching!!!!! I'm excited and happy to be playing grandmother hen on this one...

Be blessed and be a blessing!

Hatch Blessings to all

Stayed up and took naps in my office chair so i could make sure the temp. didn't spike or go down. Everything is good. Temp. is holding steady at an even 100. Going to lay down in the horizontal position for a few hours. Thanks for all the advice and support (i need all the help I can get) because I want them to hatch. Every single one of them. Watched a video on youtube on the development of a chick. It was amazing. God's work. Night.

Smile,,,,,You are quite the mother hen, now you cannot keep up this watch for 21 days, or maybe you can!

Take care of yourself during the upcoming days, remember they are going to need you for years to come!!!!

Don't put too much pressure on yourself or your little eggies...

Just enjoy the miracle and it is to me every hatch we have!

I sent you a PM...Have a blessed day!
