March 2023 hatch-a-long

I'll be hatching in March as well.
More easter/olive eggers as I'm trying to hatch a lot of pullets for future sex-link back crosses.
Will also be doing some pure Marans, possibly ordering some Cream Legbars and who knows what else I get myself for my birthday

It's a march thread
Well this is my first time hatching chicks and I'm so excited just want to share with everyone
Currently six eggs are being incubated by my baby which this is her first time ever, they are due anytime from 14-15 of February which means they are valentine chicks, which also mean that name would be given to the first born chick
Wish me good luck I hope she gives 6/6

Yes I did on the 7th day all had thick veins though one was really faint
Haven't candled since then because I'm at school

I set 22 eggs today. I wouldn’t normally hatch quite this early (I usually begin gathering / incubating on the first of March), but a friend of mine wanted some chicks ASAP. These are a random assortment of barnyard crosses, with a few of my Dominique eggs in there too. They ought to hatch on March 1st.

This will be the first hatch of many this season. Always so exciting! Good luck to everyone else hatching chicks this March! The first month of spring, in what is sure to be a record breaking season in backyard Chicken ownership!

Well, my two best Silkie hens from my blue/splash pen went broody, so I gave in and gave them three eggs each today, due to hatch 3.01. I'm also going to be setting an undetermined number on Friday from my Cuckoo, Blue Cream, and Splash show pullet cages for a 3.03 hatch, if any of them are actually fertile...
