"Springing in the Chicks" 2016 April Hatch-a-Long Hosted by Mike & Sally

So glad I Candled before putting my eggs in the hatcher... I was like "they don't look developed enough..." went back and calculated, I have a week before lockdown. Thank goodness I double checked. I need to get me a big desk calendar. The phone calendar isn't cutting it.

Edit: nope, checked delivery date again, not a week off, just a couple off days. At least a week for the others. Counting is not my strength this morning.

BYC ate my other post. :rant Second verse, same as the first.

I didn't know Sally was sick, poor thing. I've been tagging her. :oops:

I moved 11 eggs to lockdown in the hatcher. I left 15 in the bator because they don't look ready. I incubate in a LG still air, so they were probably in cold spots. They can hatch in the bator if they need to. I pulled 9 for various reasons.

Not bad for missing a whole week of incubation! :celebrate @LocalYokel

All breeds! Two merlerault made it to lockdown, and the half polish. An isbar, a bielefelder, and a handful of my mixes.

The neiderrheiners are still in the bator, plus the rest of the bieles and isbars. And mixes. They're still alive, just not as developed.

I'm collecting more half polish eggs for the bator. :oops:

Woohoo!!!
 
Sitting in my office at work and I think I keep hearing tiny chirps... ~signs I am chick obsessed~
Yes, I've heard peeps in my house when I know I don't have an incubator running. It's normal.

Nice save
 
Is anytime tomorrow between 7:24 and 8:17 is ok? Maybe that's why I haven't gotten these eggs in the incubator. I was subconsciously waiting for the moon date. Thanks for the info!

BTW, I've got to see pictures of your SFH's. I've sold every one of those chicks I've hatched and not seen how they turn out.

Please keep me updated!

I'm excited for you!

That is 8:17pm on the 21st.
 
Congrats to all the hatches.

@SallySunshine feel better soon!

Yay for candling little wigglers.

Wish my emoticons would return, I miss them and my Multi-quote.

I am sitting on my hands until Sunday when I can candle and see how many are developing.

Super excited. Every hatch is just as exciting as the first.
