Awesome Dee Congratulations.
4 of the 6 lavenders in my bator hatched. One I had to assist in his egg-scape but it was well worth it.

Mine are aracaunaxandalusian/egyptian fayoumis (possibly what the rooster was.) Lol here is a pic of the dad

I had one pip last night and then several others this morning. The first one was not hatching after 16 hours so I went in and tapped the egg with my nail, very lightly, and it tapped back so I put it down. Within 30 minutes it was out. So far 3 of 16 have hatched and several others have pipped. I am waiting like a nervous grandmother lol

Thank you! I have 5 now and I was so scared because everything I read made me think there was not enough of an air pocket in my eggs, even though I did dry incubation, and apparently there was just enough. I may be up all night in the delivery room! This could be my new addiction.

I have two lavender orphington eggs still in the bator will wait until day 25 to egg-topsy if they haven't hatched. I also have two Spangled Sussex eggs out of the 8 shipped to me in lock down right now. Today is their day 19 one last night looked eh not so viable and one looked like it could be a chick in there. Fingers crossed one of the 4 eggs in lock down hatches in the next two days.

I have a little giants 9300 with 5 goose eggs in it, 4 of them when candled last night look pretty good. Those go into lock down on Wednesday the 15th (sorry if any of you have heard this before) lol. And I have 7 Ancona duck eggs in my brinsea incubator and they also look pretty good. Their lock down day is 4-20. I'm so egg-cited. I can't wait to hatch some little goslings and ducklings. Also already thinking about what I can order to incubate next. Maybe some Tolbunts, Polish or Silkies??Or all of them? I also wanna incubate Runner ducks, and Saxony ducks. Lol am I sad or what?

Oh and I almost forgot I ordered 10 chicks, 2 goslings, 2 turkeys, and 2 ducklings. Which should arrive from Stromberg's in the mail on 5-11. I am working on getting a great farm going.
Wish you all the best of luck.
