K...I think I have a baby starting to rock and roll it's egg around. I know I did not put them that close together, and I heard something moving in there. Might have pipping late tonight ^..^

Oh darn. So happy for you guys, but I have to put in my drama, too !!

Day 20 is tomorrow, and I have seen NOTHING. No movement. No pips. No peeping no chirping. I have to say, I'm not expecting a chick ! ):

I'm new but isn't it normal to have nothing before day 20-21? I thought it was better for the chicks to hatch NOT early...?

... Oh.... Now I feel like really stupid...

HATCH IS BACK ON, PEOPLE !! lol...

They're bantam, so I figured they would develop faster, but I guess we'll see tomorrow morning then ! Also out of the second batch of eggs, 2 of the ducks are thriving. I opened one and did an eggtopsie... it was SO sad... As for the FCM, olive egger and ameraucana I won't be candling until the bantams hatch. Fingers crossed I get 2 chicks and a duck !

This setting has been more *normal* I suppose, than my last two. The first setting, everyone starting popping out at day 18... second setting it was day 19. These guys seem to prefer to wait a little longer, which is fine with me. I'm hoping to have peeps when I get home from work tomorrow though

More reassurance mine aren't odd eggs... What day are you on ? Fingers crossed you have some pips tomorrow !!

Day 18 is coming to a close. Humidity is holding steady. So ready for some action.

 

[XxPandaxX]

Yay ! So excited for you ! What types of eggs do you have set ?

 

[wahmommy]

Yay! 3 of us going in lockdown tomorrow!! I'm doing it around 8 am what time are you?

well someone just told me I should start my lockdown after 18 full days... so I think I might be locking down at 10am on WEDS now...this waiting is driving me crazy...

Day 18 is coming to a close. Humidity is holding steady. So ready for some action.

I'm ending day 18 too. Temp & humidity are holding good so expecting/hoping for a hatch in a couple days! I'm assuming there are only 2 chicks in my 4 eggs so I hope they both make it.
