Got my cam up and going... but not too much to see just now. At least I'll be able to see my eggs and know how they are throughout the day. I just turned them and I'm ready for my bed. See ya'll later.

She is a light sussex... She is currently sitting on 12 eggs again, lets hope she does better than the first time (when she killed her first 4 chicks!!!)

eksterhuis, everytime I see your avatar I'm struck by that beautiful chicken; what is she ?

Candled today... a bit disappointing... 1 sussex, 2 silver campine, 3 frizzle, 3 pekins and a silkie taken out... Lets hope they were all roosters! 1/6 of the hatch removed already!

Sweet! I'm surprised Mama moved to let you get a look, but maybe that's just the way Silkies are.

I have to say... I just LOVED being at work and still getting to glance through the glass of my incubator. Surprisingly not a single one of them moved or anything!

Everybody thoroughly made fun of me, but watch them ask me for a link when hatch time comes.

so very cute, I'm envious. I'll have my own soon enough. I kinda like the list of chickens you can have in NZ, but I guess I understand the feeling like your missing something.

That's great! It's amazing how fascinating some inert eggs laying in an incubator can be!
