Feathered, I know what you mean about staring at them for so long. That is what happens when I candle. I stare and stare and stare, and then my eyes cross or something, and I can see little shadows moving about in there.

Hey I loved your dream.

Well, home from shopping and still NOTHING!!!! I have a feeling something went wrong. How long do you normally give them until you break them open (not looking foward to that at all) I'm ending day 21 now so I thought maybe till the end of Sun. or maybe Mon. afternoon? What's the latest they can hatch? I'm so bummed out right now

I think the rule of thumb is to give at least 3 days following your anticipated hatch day. When you candled before putting them into lock down, did you see movement?

ALL 20 HATCHED!!! I woke up this morning and the last one was working its way out of the egg, and is now just drying off in the 'bator. I know, I know, gotta take some pics...

Hey Slackwater, that's great!

I have four and a couple of pips. They are not really due until today, well, this evening actually.
