Mahonri's 2nd Annual BYC EASTER HATCH. Post pics of your chicks!

Locked down last night.

Started with 45 eggs (Easter Eggers my own)
Candled on day 11 tossed 6, all clear.
Candled as when moved to hatcher. Lost 2, 1 had blood ring and 1 was a stinker.

Here's to hoping for a wonderful hatch for all of us using the 21 day hatching method.

I don't think anyone in my family gets my sarcasm often. They prefer to refer to me as a smart-a$$ (ALECK!) Of course I passed it down to DD, and she does get it - most of the time - when she is not lacing comments with sarcasm herself.
 
1 of the goose eggs has hatched, the other has a shell pip. I decided to open the air cell and break the membrane for #3 since it wasn't pushing and hadn't pipped internally yet. It is backwards in the shell...so that one probably won't make it

When you announced your surprise egg during the New Year hatchathon, I bragged that I was 36 and didn't have any yet and even knocked on wood! Next thing I know, SURPRISE:ya !!!!!!

BooYah! Imagine how surprised you would feel if you were approaching age 46 rather than 36!!!​

Just kidding and CONGRATS! Now you get to sit and worry over the pip and wonder when it will come out! REMEMBER it can sometimes take 24 hours so don't panic!

I can see the beak working at the hole! How eggciting!!!
