Although at "First Glance", the colors and feathering are deceiving......

Upon further close examination...it is quite obvious that they are ALL...

Ok let me see I got 12 eggs from Beth and I got 8 from John and heres what I have a cookin 1 leghorn 1 EE 2 buff orphangintons 2 red sexlink 1 black sexlink and 3 brown mystery eggs that I have no clue what they are so I will have to play "what u be little chickie"???

yep from what i can tell about 6 of thoes eggs came from your flock so good luck when you set yours!!! I will post pics
 
Your eggs won't start rockin' and rollin' until possibly day 19. After that you may see it more vigorously. They need to start turning themselves to get into position and it helps to start getting that umbilical cord twisted enough to tear loose after hatch. Unzipping the egg is very helpful with that and to get them started absorbing the yolk. I have helped a few chicks out but notice sometimes they don't do well because they didn't get the chance to twist the cord enough to break it loose and start absorbing. I didn't explain that well but I still think the more they rock and roll the better off they are when hatched.

The only reason I am Nadine on here is because my first name was already taken so I went with Nadine. Not too many with that name. My mother always called me Amy Nadine when she was mad at me. So....basically all my life!

It is my middle name and have been called both so call me whichever you prefer.

The Frizzles are looking good! And I see at least 3 roos maybe 4. And one definite girl. I see a blue and a black but the others are harder for me since that yellow base color can turn into anything. I have been fooled by my little yellows so much.
This was yellow with darker wings like one of yours........
