No pips yet. Just some egg rocking, and I think I heard a peep. The camera batteries are charging, and will keep ya updated.

Good luck everyone.

Good hatching vibes to you Bluemoon. I just plugged in my second bator to give me 2 days to get it regulated before Wed. lockdown.

Eastin how's your bashful rooster? Maybe just one hen to start... she might get lonely enough.

Well dak, he has been trying to get their attention by biting the backs of their necks, but that effort seems to have no effect on them.

BUMP

Sorry, saw raimnel do it so I just had to.

How is everybody?
Getting SUPER excited... Wednesday is lockdown, so maybe I can upload candling pics on the 28th.
Hoping to get more fertile eggs to hatch, if only my rooster would get over himself and do his job.

Congrats, and welcome to the thread!!!

I'm already pacing, and my eggs aren't due for another 5 days.

Guys... is it normal to be hearing peeps on day 16??? Because, well, I think I heard something from them.

Once again... no clue.

Maybe some of the more experienced can tell us if you need to lock down early. Do you think (other than your temp spike) your temps have been running a little high? dak
