It's been awhile since I candled mine... Hours really. Lmbo.

I resisted. Mainly because I forgot to take the flashlight up to the loft with me. Guess had I thought about it, I could have used my miner's headlamp that hubby insists I wear after dark so I don't fall down the stairs...

Thanks.

This is really sad! That was $40 dollars from my birthday money .....

So sorry about your WH eggs.

yay for the pips!! And leave the WH in there anyway to be sure. Won't hurt anything.

They ALL had babies growing, but looks like a whole bunch of blood ring. I plan on leaving them their until friday... the one has really good looking baby in it. I hope it makes it! I hope their are more then just ONE!

So far nothin'. Day 4 now. Hmmmm... Usually I can tell by now, but it's kinda muddy from the rain and all..

I had a couple ducks from this last hatch that looked like they were going to form blood rings, and they ended up not. So fingers crossed DG!!

I'm going to have a Saxony pip any minute now. It's got that yellow discoloration on the shell. Know what I mean? Yay!!


Now where am I gonna put them... hmmmm...

 

[QuackerJackFarms]

Im gettin ready to head to bed, but I might candle my mallard egg one more time...Now that it's dark out and all.
