Mahonri's 2nd Annual NYDHatch, watching them grow...

[featherz]

Back from the butcher.. uhh dentist.. got my four fillings .. I guess no more amalgam due to all the mercury hubbub? Anyways, four fillings that I hope don't go bad on me (they were deep) and $42 out of pocket. Woohoo! He wouldn't give me any good drugs tho, so keep your fingers crossed for me.

As for my chicks.. Trying to find my flashlight now to check for more pips (kinda dark in my hatch room) but no chicks out yet. Still three obvious pips... There's hope for that midnight hatch yet! Off to find my flashlight..

ETA: Still only three pips. I hear peeping now..

Don't fret yet, Mahonri! I do it all the time! When some hatch I pull them out and put them in another bator to dry and fluff (the recovery room). It will be okay, I'm sure!

/agreed. I do the same. The time i stuck 30 in a brinsea I was pulling about 10 chicks at a time out. And I had 27/30 hatch!!

Thanks it did end up dying, poor little thing. It hatched with a bloody navel and then I left the house for about an hour and when I came back there was blood everywhere, ugh. I just hate it when that happens. Anyone know what causes the bloody navel?

Goochgirl, I feel your pain. Two bators, one hatched out of 17. No pips on anything else

I think I might go crazy tonight. I'll be gone for a while around midnight, so I left dad in charge of taking a pic of the clock for me when the babies hatch. I'm thinking it won't happen.
