The 6th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

[chickwhispers]

Congratulations!!! To all the hatches so far!!!

to all who had problems so far too.

I am so far behind reading I will never catch up!










I got 3 more hatched yesterday morning! A Bow-Tie and 2 Naked Necks! They kept me awake half the night! The incubator is in the bedroom with me so I can check humidity whenever I wake up. I checked on them just in time to see one hatch out! It was awesome! I got it on video and proceeding to make it a You-Tube video.

It took all day, but I hope any who watch enjoy it! It was fun to do!

Now time to finish getting the brooder ready in time to relax some tonight and catch up on those posts!

Good luck everyone! This is an anxious but fun time!!

Congratulations on all your chicks and pipps. I woke up to the one that had pipped last night had zipped and it finally hatched around 6 am.

any sizzles yet? great to hear your progress!

this tree is so cool! my quotes got messed up...sorry about that...
so can albinos not love properly?

really?! thats so neat! they cant live without it?

Nope. Because the albino trees don't have any chlorophyll in their foliage, they can't absorb sunlight. So they have to stay connected with trees that have green foliage. I believe they stay pretty small, too. I would love to see them sometime

@chickadoodles
Don't you love the early morning hatchers!

You get to watch them dry and get strong all day long!

(You know your chick obsessed when a drying chick makes your day! )

I finally have a pip! I wish I could be more excited, but this pip is on an egg I set Sunday. Still absolutely nothing from my Saturday eggs. What the heck? I'm sure I killed them. All except that one I guess.

I do love it. What are you hatching? Or have your already hatched?

Awww, but some just hatch faster. And the Saturday ones aren't even due yet. That's what I am telling myself about the potential olive egger eggs, anyway. Nothing from them so far.

C'mon, chickies!

@ozexpat All hatched already? And how is the storm so far? I hope you all are safe!
