Today is day 5 and I candled the polish eggs and they all have veining and I even saw one eyeball!!!! Thanks to silkiechicken AWESOME thread with the those AWESOME pics, I now know what to look for!
Just wanted to let you all know that the second chick did get out today...been very busy, though so I haven't been able to get to computer to upload. So, here ya go.
Congrats to all of you who have fuzzy butts running around! Ok...back to the show!
Offhand, I just got back from taking my daughter to see the new Tim Burton/Johnny Depp colaboration: Alice in Wonderland. I think it's a great movie! Go get tickets and see it in 3D!!
Can I join?? Setting 8 Wheaten Marans and 4 Cm also EE's one now hoping to get more Sunday to put in. Starting Sunday afternoon. This will be my 3rd hatch this year.
Hatch date to be 3/27/10
I put 21 barnie eggs in the incubator on February 20th at 1:20 AM. I just candled 5 of them again tonight (soon to be day 15) and they're all doing great and dancing around in their eggs. I always have to say, "Well hello little baby!" before I put them back in the 'bator! *LoL* Anyone else talk to their eggs?
My brown egg layers aren't doing much, so 16 of the 21 are from my WL girls.
Once these eggs go into the hatcher on Tuesday, I'm setting eggs from my EE hen, which will be EE x RSL. So far she's only given me 4 this week, but I'm hoping to have at least one more before it's time to set them
ETA: These are due next Friday, the 12th, which just happens to be my b-day
I have two faverolles bantam chicks out and one pipped then I have 8 ameraucana and two test eggs due on the 25th. Hopefully I will set more eggs silver penciled rock bantams soon.
