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

[speckledhen]

First BR hatched from Kathyinmo, finally. It's a huge chick and was having serious trouble getting "untucked", poor thing, but it's here and very wet. Only one other pipped of those and one pipped of the BBS Rocks. This is a loooong hatch! Started on Day 19 and still going on into Day 23.

YAY, you got one out! I sure hope you get some more!

This thread has had me on the edge of my seat

I love the funny pic with the face in the middle

This one is a cockerel. I can see it even before it dries enough to see the headspot and there is no dark color at all on the legs...BIG legs! The second one is zipping now.

 

[kathyinmo]

Gezzzzz, maybe at this late time you should go ahead and pip the others and see what's happening?????

 

[speckledhen]

I'm going to probably do that in a few minutes, Kathy. I usually never let them go this long, but this time, I have a feeling it was the bator's cool spots.

 

[kathyinmo]

Well, if that is the case, then maybe they will just be later then. I sure hope they hatch!
