Set 86 Eggs Tonight *FORTY-FOUR Hatched--Hatch Over *

[speckledhen]

A BLRW has pipped. As far as I can see of pips, I have 1 BLRW, 3 Buff Orps, 2 D'Anvers and 1 EE or Ameraucana. The 5 D'Anvers in the brooder are so tiny, but seem vigorous and are already drinking and eating.

Five little D'Anvers doing well. The other two pipped ones are taking their time and can't tell if the last two are pipped:

Looks like there may be as many as five or six Buff Orps pipped, but can't see well.

One Buff Orp hatched that I didn't even know was pipped and I see at least 5 other BOs that are pipped. A 6th D'Anver hatched, too. Nothing yet from the NHs, SLWs, the Olive Egger, the BRs from Kathy and the BBS Rocks from the other Kathy. One of the BRs from William has pipped, but can't tell on the others. They're making me wait, bad little poopers. Day 21 has begun.

I'm back from my road trip, and checking in, Cyn!

HOOORAY for the chicks! You are well on your way to a full brooder!

I can't wait for the Rocks and NHs in the 2nd bator to get started.

Go, chickies, go!

A 7th D'Anver is zipping and a Buff Orp. This is going to be another long night. Or maybe I should just go to bed and wake up to lots of babies.

COME ON CHICKIES ! ! ! I am waiting!

FINALLY! A NH has pipped! First on in Bator #2.
