March Hatching Madness

[sevenchickens]

I couldn't stand it I had to look and I'm so glad I did, I finally saw them move. I have 7 eggs in the bator as my first test hatch and they are all wiggling around. Now if only I can stop myself from taking them out to watch them!! Only 4 more days to lockdown!! Good Luck to everyone!!!

DUH!! ETA link

Hey thanks. I wasn't expecting much from these eggs because they were 2 to 3 weeks old but I'm pleasantly surprised 17 out the 21 i started out with are growing.

I thought that my hatch would be a total fail because of some temp probs but I have a baby as of 10 mins ago!

He pipped and zipped really fast before I could get the camera. I have 5-7 more pips and a few without pips are rocking around. I used a LG and hand turned the eggs so this has been quite the experience. I am already trying to figure out what I can put in the bator next!

I have one pip, 4 hours early! A wise woman once said the early one's turn out to be roo's. In all my hatches this theory hasn't been wrong yet.

Woo hoo! Just about an hour into day 20 and I was out for a walk and lunch. I came back to a large hole in one egg and a very active cheeper. It keeps sticking its beak through the pip hole. I rotated the bator to get a better look and saw that she had a buddy! Her buddy looks like she wants her beauty rest though because the second pip is not showing any activity. I will put up some photos when I have a moment but until then I wanted to share some of my joy. I feel really happy right now, like my life has some purpose.
