Ah, so you are putting them in the bator as you find them?

Yeah, in pairs or threes as I get them

I took egg 1 out of the incubator just now to whistle at it...and it moved!

(I might have to keep this one, if it hatches. First grand-chick and all.)

Do you ever feel slightly crazy while watching to see if it’s going to wiggle?

Yes! Half the time I'm like, did it move or did I imagine it?

But now I have video proof, lol.

I’ve done that so many times lol I would sit in the spare room all quiet for hours checking for wiggles. You really do start to imagine things. Put a .22 long rifle round flat side down on top of the egg. It won’t fall off unless it moves.

The young male here is practising his vocalisations. He seems chuffed at being able to gurk gurk.
