The Fathers Day Hatch-A-Long!!! The Last Day To Set eggs Is June 3rd!!!!

[Bigfamily4me]

I have silkies due Sunday. (they weren't set on time to be a true Hatchalong ) I'm curious though. I think I read they tend to hatch early? Is that true? We're going camping Friday night and coming back late Saturday. Don't know if I should be prepared to see babies or not...

Bantams do tend to hatch earlier then LF eggs. Usually around a day or 2 earlier.

Don't go by that because sometimes they don't hatch early.

I'm down to 7 Welly eggs
My dog .......
The 7 that didn't break might have
been shook up too much by the fall
but I'll set them tomorrow anyways.
I want to cry.

This is the excitement of chickens. . depending on multiple factors, they hatch when they hatch! YOu may come home to a wonderful surprise!! Have fun camping!

I try to keep DH from knowing what I"m doing!! He asked how many are in the hatcher--64. Then he confirmed that they are for sale--yes. ( But not all

) ANd I did NOT mention the other 5-6 dozen just loaded into the incubator!
