November/December "Hatch-a-Long"

[Heidisgran]

well my first egg due Tues. has pipped
I believe

it's my dark sex links baby!
unless I've made a boo boo again...sometimes the orp eggs are very light and I stick them in hoping it's "Little Darks" egg
I love them all but I've gotten babies from everyone else....Little Darks baby drown this last summer

Come on little black chickie!!

Two chicks didn't manage to make it out of their eggs today. The other four are doing great and should be taking their first trip outside soon.

Congrats on the ones that made it

1st chick due tomorrow under broody hen. I examined the egg and see no signs of a pip. When does the pip happen?

anywhere from 48hr to 1 hr before they zip and hatch... when did u candle last???
