Well she made it through the night !!!
her yoke sak is half the size it was when I went to bed last night - she is still fluffing up much but from what it looks like she is going to be black like her cayuga mom - still no clue on who her daddy is - but since she is not showing any signs of being creasted I am starting to think her dad is Afflac the pekin.
She has been opening her eyes when I go into check on her and she will kick her HUGE feet and flap her little wings - so she is very active. She still wants to lay there curled up in the "egg shape". Her breathing seems normal not raceing or anything.
And I noticed last night that one of her siblings has pipped - so hopefully it goes better with that one.
so I think - for a first time hatcher I am doing alright - out of 3 eggs - 1 hatched, 1 pipped,1 has not done anything yet. Today marks day 30 for them I will give the eggs until this weekend to something.
i do have a few quick questions ---
1) how long before I help the egg that has pipped or the one that has done nothing?
2) how long should I leave the first baby in there before she needs out with food and water?
3) how long do you think it will be before she is up walking?
Oh and if there are any Jeff Dunham fans - This baby's name is Peanut LOL
