On day 3 of trying to hatch an egg in my boobs

[Sapphire Sebright]

Babushka, it is. Let's hope that it's a hen... it would be embarrassing to have it turn out to be a rooster after calling it "grandmother" for nearly a month.

I love how this post was hilariously nuts me originally (pre Ohio stay at home order) and now (weeks into it) it sounds much more reasonable. The boredom is getting to me.

It's amazing what boredom can do to you.
Suddenly, the house is literally sparkling clean....
(I haven't done that yet, actually... maybe some time later -- I'm not that desperate yet!).

So the boredom hasn’t made you clean house but it has caused you to shove chicken eggs into your bra to hatch them. Your priorities are perfectly in line and I think we would be great friends!

This is my favorite thread on BYC! Y’all are awesome! I hope that all of the eggs hatch into happy, healthy chicks!

Nah, I would have tried this anyway, I think. I admit to being a bit of a loopy-loo.
And, sure, let's be friends!

I have an update!!!

Chicken baby is doing great! 13 days in and he's huge. Moving well, good veining.

3 of the button quail have begun developing! They look like tiny red spiders. I'm in love! I was not expecting to see something so soon, LOL! The coturnix eggs are all still clear though the yolk in some is noticeably darker.

Another button quail egg has what appears to be a blood ring but I'm giving it a chance. The others look empty so far, but I'm also giving them a chance. Maybe they're just late bloomers.

Also, I got yelled at apparently for continuing to try. My boobs have had a better development rate than my bator so far, and I'm definitely going to take what I've learned and apply it to these babies. As soon as they pip internally I'm assisting. Just the tiny external pip. That should prevent what happened last time from repeating, barring any infection.
