Marlon{The man who is hatching my eggs} went to set them at 3pm today and 1 is already piping out. He sets them up in front of a webcam so people can watch. Pretty cool. Can't wait!

I actually have to work a 12 hour shift tomorrow and Sunday, my day 21 is on Sunday. DH is home with them, so he's going to keep me posted, hopefully I timed it just right so they are hatching when I get home

I'M SO EXITED!!!!! So Tomorrow was supposed to be lockdown, but I just candled my eggs, and one is trying to get through the air cell! They were still in the turner, so I immediately took them out for lockdown. Me and my cousin are freaking out right now!!!!
 
That is the website I used for making my humidifier for my incubator.

LOL who knew. I have 1 early bird. It is moving around the brooder. It was from a green egg. So it will be an Olive egger! Funny it was in the middle of the set eggs. I put dates on the eggs. You can see the dates in the cam. I hope I get more than 1

I looked in my eggs twice today and mine were just playing around too. They all looked good, except for one egg has a live chick in it, but the development is way, way, way beyond the other eggs. It's too weird of a story to go into, but it's one of the "alien" eggs that gave me such a scare last week. I don't know if this is something I put in later or what. I didn't move it over into the hatching box, just left it in the incubator. I don't know how it will take it because I sat four dozen eggs in crates and the temps dropped way down. Odd.....I wonder what will eventually happen to it???

4am and I have 5 chicks so far all from green eggs. It's funny how they are all hatching at about the same time. looks like a 25th,26th,29th,1st and 2nd have hatched. As I collected that week I stored them in a closet. It was around 60 degrees. I have a BCM piping now! Geez I wont sleep tonight

Lower the humidity to make the air cell bigger. They would need to lose more moisture. If they are too big, you raise it. Good luck. When is lockdown? I think mine might be a bit too big, but lockdown is tomorrow and I just started thinking this a few days ago so probably not too much I can do at this point. I have lowered the H since then so hoping for the best.
Thanks.. Lower it is .

Congrats! They are all soooo cute!

Day 20 here, no pipping or peeping yet, but we did have about an hour or 2 of power out on them. I have that fear that none will hatch and the kids will be so disappointed.
