Can't wait to see babies!
 
I'm worried about one, been knocking since last night but still no pip. The other had the shell it piped thru fall off, but the membrane is still not broken. I can here it chirping, but no knocking.


Mine did this for over 12 hours... This one wasn't even piped and I went to pick up eggs from the post office and LOOK!!!

Sneaky little booger!

Aw! How awesome! Mine are ducks that I had to take away from mama. She was broody, just too broody and didn't kick eggs out of the nest when they died and had too many in there as well. All were rotten when I Candled them and these two little stinkers were feisty and moving like jumping beans. Never incubated but bought one just for this. Everything I have read said that if the membrane gets too dry it can shrink wrap it and if it's too moist, it can drown it. I'm a nervous wreck because they have made it this far. I'll be upset if they don't make it to hatch. Can hear both cheeping now, but 2nd still has no pip.... ugh! I'm nerve wracked!

It's nerve wracking EVERY TIME!!! Lockdown is like watching a scary movie for fun... You get all scared and nervous but you are excited so you can't sleep till the little boogers hatch! Lol
