Star Wars Hatch Along

[Justy0]

No pips for me yet but I did hear a soft knocking a little while ago and if I get really close to the bator I can hear a very faint chirp every so often. I am so excited! Sadly I don't thinking i'm getting any Star Wars babies since there's only an hour left in the day for me, but I'm not to sad since I'm still getting some excitement!

Final count, 11 baby turkeys. I wasn't expecting whites...but I ended up with 3 of them.

My ducks seem to have orchestrated this to not hatch on the fourth Two hatched on the third, the last one still hasn't hatched yet and probably will today. No Star Wars babies for me.

Aww but if one hatched today itd be a cinco de mayo baby!!

My silky ducks may hatch on the 4th. They're bantams though so they might actually hatch on the 2nd or 3rd. But I'll join

Where did you get your Opals? Good luck!!!

 

[bbond]

I got the opals from a local breeder who got hers from Candace’s f7 generation. They normally only sell chicks but their incubators were full. Yay for me!

Haha! I will! Hatching is so fun, but it takes so much patience. I just candled today (day 7) and I saw the little chicks dancing around in their shells, and it was so cool. Every time I hatch I am fascinated with it.
This go round I am hatching for the farm I work at. I’m hatching from my own flock. I’m really excited to see how it will turn out because they will all be mixed breeds, and I think they will be gorgeous. I have hatched a few mixed breeds with this rooster, and I love every one of them. They have been stunning!
The chicks will all be half speckled sussex, and then they could be mixed with Easter egger, black Australop, buff orpington, barred rock, or red sexlink. So I could have a whole assortment!!

Well it’s day three and I absolutely could not wait to candle. At least 17 of 21 are developing!! Hopefully I’ll have lots of little fluffy butts!! I also have two speckled Sussex crosses I’m growing out. One is crossed with an EE and one is crossed with a gold laced Wyandotte.

@golden egg5 is your speckled Sussex not as mean as satan then? I’ve had two and they were both very aggressive with people.
