The 9th Annual BYC Easter Hatchalong!

[AlezaJ]

I learned a lot reading the posts on this hatch along and from my own mistakes. When's the next hatch along?

5 chicks hatched. Not a single duck.

Awww, I'm sorry no ducklings.

There is usually a Cinco de Mayo hatch.

Updated to say that all 23 hatched! Including 10 dark brown Welsummer eggs

I have 20 chicks! I only reported putting 20 eggs in my incubator, but the next morning (less than a day later) I added three. Those three are pipping and I hope they're out by this evening! Knock on wood 100%

I hope you get more to hatch!

Our hatch prior to April 1st, on day 24 we tossed the balance of no hatches in the waste can. A short time later we heard a chirping in the trash bag. Tried to rescue the little dude but failed. Never a dull moment. Who can actually say "I've seen it all?".. not us.

This is why people need to wait until the end of day 26! Please, please everyone spread this message...late chicks aren't impossible and I've seen too many sad stories of people pitching eggs before day 26 only to realize there was a live peeper in there.
