monarc23 - You're about to be a grandma

So I got 41 eggs from you, with the contest you had. Today is day 17 in the incubator and I have 20 or so pips so far, that I can see.

GOOD LORD! HA! 2 of the 3 that you labeled red have pips so far. WOOT! Hope it's a guy and gal. Can't wait to see all the colors. I'll be sending pictures and asking who is who for sure!!!

These little buggers really are hardy aren't they. I got them when I already had my incubator running with chicken eggs, which hatched this past Wednesday, which meant my timing was all screwed up with turning these guys and the humidity situation.

and wish me luck!

awhh that's so exciting!!!! Out of the reds you may end up getting Rosetta tuxedos instead of the reds sadly.... I am having a HECK of a time getting red tuxedos from my golden red pretties. But today I finnally got a cinnamon from my cinnamon hen (another "Red") so who knows maybe you'll get lucky!!! However the rosetta tuxedos ive been getting from my reds are BEAUTIFUL!!! So it's not a big loss I promise you! LOL! A nicely marked rosetta tuxedo is a pain to come by *atleast in my experience* and these are the nicest so far

Heres what they (the red chicks) may look like (rosetta tuxedo):

^very pretty babies (the one in the back is a solid rosetta you should get a few of those too from the rosettta eggs)

You'll more than likely get several pure whites ( A & Ms but not from my A & Ms, frm my tuxedo birds), and hopefully a few really nice tuxedo babies, a TON of goldens (from my jumbo golden pen ANd from my rosetta pen lol) . I just had a bunch of cuties hatch today. ANND if you'rel ucky you may get what im calling Spangles

Its a brown chick with white wing tips!
