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

Mine are not waiting til tonight. I have 4 hatched already and 7 more pips. I have one OE, One of Bob's big brown mixs, one Silkie, and one Phoenix.

38 more to go.

Here is another update from our hatch as of 3 pm, we have 9 out, 3 pips and 2?

Don't know who is more into watching the bator us or the dog-he has been very good but hangs over the cover and you have to push him out of the way to see..

You have awesome insurance if that's all four fillings cost you out of pocket... that or he doesn't charge very much. You usually don't need drugs for fillings. you should be fine unless they were into the nerve... if they were into the nerve,you'll know within the next few days because it will hurt to bite on them.... then you'll need a root canal... and THEN you'd need some drugs.

DD just walked in and said, "Dad, you know those two white eggs that had holes that you said wouldn't hatch? They are hatched."

Guess I'll apologize to dear son... so now I have 3 Icelandics out... BUT.. I'm still not opening that brinsea for a bit.

I do.. I had 2 insurances with 2K each in coverage - my main one is 80/20 on fillings. He got pretty close to the nerve on the two I am worried about so we shall see. So far so good and no longer numb. I'm an old pro at root canals - don't mind them except for the cost and the time it takes.

I told ya the brinsea would not fail you! I haven't had a shrinkwrap since I started using it and I do open it now and then. I have DH help me - he opens and I snatch the chicks out into my 'recovery room' as fast as possible. It's only when necessary. only 15 in there now so might not even be needed! Ok, running up to press my nose against the plastic again.

I now have 6 chicks out, plus more pips. A welsummer egg and a bantam cochin are zipping right now. All but 4 eggs have pips.

I have:
3 Icelandics
1 Olive Egger
2 Bantam cochins

I'm getting so jealous of everyone and their new chickies! I'm so ready to have little fluffy babies!
