March 2023 hatch-a-long

One of my Pavlovskaya chicks have pipped and I have duckling zipping, she really just needs to push herself out. Well the duckling isn’t one of mine, but 2 of mine are pipped. I’m really curious what color Call this one is. Anyone of these guys I hatch will help my friend out and that is pretty exciting to me.

Pulled the turner, officially in lockdown. Hoping for some cute fluff in a couple days

Yes, there’s always a couple that are a day or two early, and I always let the stragglers go for an extra day. I think I had one guy on day 23 so I try to give it time. I have to wonder if this is due to inconsistent temps or something else I could address.

My toddler woke me up about 10 minutes ago and all I could hear was chirping! First baby is out from the first pip from yesterday. I only have two additional pips aside from that so far, but I can’t see into the mesh bags very well so it’s possible there’s action I’m missing. Jeeze, this little one is chirping up a storm that’s heard across the whole house! Hopefully someone joins her soon! (Looks girl to me at first glance.)

Congrats!!!!!!!! I was woken up at some point during the night (didn't get up this time since I had to be up way too early) with super loud chirps as 2 more joined the 2 that were already in there. LOL

I've been staring at my incubator the entire day, but its time to retire to bed, but boy was that an eventful hatch night! Day 20 and 6/7 eggs hatched so far and looks like its 4 mille fleur d'uccles and 2 gold neck d'uccles.

Hopefully the last egg hatches in the morning for a 100% lucky 7 for my first batch of eggs!

4/5 pips, day 20. They pipped right after I posted earlier! Should have some more chickies tonight. Looks like it’s going to be a busy hatching weekend for a lot of us!
