Glad to find you guys! We're on Day 11 with 12 bantam Silver-laced Barnevelders and 9 Olandsk Dwarf eggs. Eggs were shipped, so hoping for the best. Will candle again on day 14. At day 7, we had 16 showing good development and 5 not so clear. Fingers crossed for all of us hatching this month!
 
I'm gonna have to get me some of these silkies everyone is talking about...I'll have to tell my husband all the cool kids are getting them :lau.

For those of you "sneaking" peeks I'm right there with you, I look EVERYDAY, my husband got on me about it but I told him I have to learn some how what things should look like and when :)
 
@Kat MacK Silver Laced Barnevelders are gorgeous! I hope you get a bunch of fluffy chicks.

Have you hatched shipped eggs before? Did yours travel very far? This is my first time and I think it's going okay considering they came from LA to CA, which is pretty far. I currently have 4 of 6 developing. I didn't turn them at all for 5 days and now I'm hand tilting them. The air cells were quite loose on arrival, but not completely detached. I so want to have at least a little success with them.

I've decided that candling the eggs without touching them doesn't count! I already have to open the lid to turn the eggs and I can just shine my candler on them while they lay there. Logical, yes?
