November/December "Hatch-a-Long"

Zipping has begun! It has not made much progress in 15 min though and is breathing fast. Is that normal???

Two pips now! The one has been pipped since this morning, just a little progress. The other is newly pipped. They're talking to each other (two eggs right next to each other). I have to be somewhere tonight so I guess I'm going to have to wait and see what has happened when I get home!

I'm so glad I don't have to go anywhere tonight! I'd worry the whole time I was gone. Good luck!

Naturally all the hip chicks hang out at the bar ..my man made this for them after my Guinea pig waterer leaked everywhere..

I have a baby!!! It took about 75 min to zip, then it kicked out and has been moving around and chirping non-stop since then! Aren't they supposed to be tired? Lol!
