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

See my 2 zippers and the other pips???

7:33PM my time, post # 5338 Not gonna make it to post 5500, that's for sure!

As of 8:30pm I have 7 / 39 pipped , 0 zipped, 0 hatched. And am inpatiently waiting....

I've been running downstairs to the basement to check on my 3 chicks in the brooder. Then I MIGHT BE MISSING SOMETHING IN THE INCUBATOR UPSTAIRS... run upstairs.

Boring in the incubator... back downstairs.

That ought to burn off some of the pizza and chocolate covered blueberries I've consumed today while incubator watching.

My hovabator was warm when I put the eggs in, so maybe that gave them a head start, and I have spot in our bathroom with vanity lights on it... when I close the doors, it warms up pretty good... so perhaps mine got a head start in there before I put them in the bator... That and I'm fairly certain that my hovabator was running high. I set the brinsea shortly after that, and so far I've hatched 3 of 21 with 2 pips in that bator.

I still have 3 in the hovabator that haven't hatched and I doubt that they will.

Well, this was post number 5280. That was my guess. Only off by a few hours!

Sure, I think that would work. It would tell the time, right?

Its alright girls ; I made myself do the chores without , but took my meds when I came back in . I only had migraines for a few times many years ago ; but I think they were worse than the pain I have now ! Hope you get better quick

Thank you

I think I should be used to it....but nooooo...even though couple of them every week...depending on how stubborn I am they can last 2-3 days......I really need to take the prescription asap but I hate it and try to wait it out. This one is a doozy today. Dimmed laptop screen...TV and lights off......well all but the flashlight in the next room shining into the bator

I remember the migraine hurting so bad I puked , then looking out the window in the dark , thought a house a block away was on fire . I tried to get the wife [ now x ] to call the fire dept ; she said the only light up the street was a street light , and it was barely reflected by the house in question windows . If I had someting to take , I would have !

This is third prescription I have tried in the past year. It is the best one so far but has limits on how many I can take (2 in 24 hrs) so sometimes still need other over the counter stuff or go get a shot too.
Being sick is common for me with mine....as is the lights being to bright and sounds being too loud. Luckily the house dog rarely barks. Am waiting to see if the excedrine migraine & two aspirin will help any before taking #2. Trying to stay occupied, laying on the couch, and drinking coffee & pepsi so I don't sleep through midnight!

I guess I need to confess : I tried to bump my only pipped egg with a drinking straw to see if I could get a sign of life . The straw would not reach . Decided to stay in here , away from the bator , for awhile

Thanks Kimberly! Haha, Sumter Nat'l Forest (Turkey Creek) is where I hope to be hiking Sun.
For all I know, my main incubator(Steady Eddy has been running continuously/non-stop since Oct '05 ) may be running cool. I haven't dropped a thermometer in there in a while --- it grows eggs well and they hatch on Day 21 --- and that's all I ask.
