November/December "Hatch-a-Long"

Quote: She's doing good! Here she is with her new friends:



And one more EE is zipping at the moment, plus miss Peanut duckling is pipped and getting ready to come out. Last one I'm waiting on is the fav egg that hasn't pipped yet.

Better pictures later when the chicks are more with it and I can get them in my light box.

too sweet

too early, I'm anxious though

I'll be the dissenting opinion here. If I have one lagging behind like that I make an external pip in the very top and check for signs of life/malposition versus waiting for it to possibly smother. If I see there is actually an internal pip I then leave it alone to do its thing - no harm done.

One quick update, then pictures. That faverolles egg I though never pipped? It did. Toward the bottom. It had a super large air cell so I'm thinking that's what threw her off. Anyway she pipped, yay! I don't have to worry about her not getting air any more.

I started a thread for "Frankenchicky" if anyone here cared about her progress, and so I won't clog up this thread with it.
