I did not use my incubator for this one, but instead an very stubborn Silkie named Cleo. She has 5 standard eggs (3 BO, 1 BR and 1 RIR) under her. As of last night, she had pips. Can not wait to go to the barn and see what she has for us this morning.

so far 4 babies, 2 pips and 8 eggs just hanging around

this one is of the first 3, #4 is zipping at the bottom of the pic

C O N G R A T S to all the new chicks!

Its the beginning of day 21 for me. Late last night I thought I heard a chirp, or maybe I just wanted to hear it. But everything was quiet this morning, too quiet. I wish I knew what I did wrong. I haven't seen any movement. My regular feed store won't have chick starter for another 2 weeks - bad omen. Well there's still time. I'm at work. Maybe I'll have a surprise at 6pm when I get home. It could happen.

Hopefully you'll have something happening by the time you get home! I have nothing yet on my egg. I'm going to wait a bit longer then will check it. It was moving a bit the other day and nothing now

What feed store?

The Red Barn in Middletown. A cash only store. There prices are good when you buy 50lbs bags, $11 each for layer feed. They had a small bag of chick starter - 8lbs for $8. My DH gets it when he drops my daughter off at OCCC. They usually have coupons in the paper, but I haven't been to good at cutting them out.

Good to know another place that does carry it. B&G pet supply, walden animal deli, and Tractor supply in highland all have chick starter/ grower. If you are in a pinch. I always like to see which place has the best prices.
