Good morning Food Eggies! Waffles, time to get toasting!

All the eggs, even the 2 i was concerned about, are doing well! I just did a very quick candle looking for bloodring or movement. On Friday I will do a thorough handling and check their grams lost, they will be 14 days then!

Great cooking food chicks!
Go Cupcake!

Any ideas for how to keep the egg numbers straight when they hatch? I would love to be able to attach a picture to each name when hatching comes, but im not sure how to keep them straight! I suppose I could stickers their ankles, but im worried that might just cause problems and not be worth it.

little leg bands? Are those big enough to write a number on? At least with mixed parents, not all the chicks will be identical, LoL in theory.

But shells get knocked all around during hatch so someone would have to see each egg hatch to id that chick, remember that chick to band it... Could try hatching boxes to separate certain ones?
Um, good luck with that?

All I could think of was hatching boxes too lol. But thats alot of little boxes! 23 individual boxes... i may have to give up on the idea.
