Redinator's First Hatch-Along

[redinator]

They look further along than Pot's eggs. Maybe Cookie will pop out to wish me a happy trip before I leave Friday afternoon.

They're 'due to hatch' on Saturday, but Sweety's eggs are on the small side, so we may have some early pips from hers.

I am completely new to this but I thought the same thing seeing them. Developing so nicely! Grow little chicks

Shipped eggs are such a gamble, sometimes you get a great hatch and other times not so much. But you've got a few that look great there, I will be keeping my fingers crossed they make it to hatch!

I picked them up locally. She's starting out like I am, so I'm not mad, just disappointed.

I sold a couple of my older chickens a month or so ago and a few days later my new chicks came down with Cocida, so I get that these things happen.

She offered replacements, but I told her I'd hold off and see what my ratio is.

She said she'll be hatching more for herself next spring and would give me a couple of pullets if I need them. So we'll see.

This kind of thing is also why I put some of my own eggs in too. If I only had Ayam Cemani eggs I would be wondering if there was an issue with the incubator, or if I was handling them too much and so on, but that obviously isn't the case.
