Tis Time for a March 2020 Hatch-a-long!

The flowery easter egger hatched and it looks the same as the oliver egger so far. 😭 No way I'm keeping track.

Right now I have 1 blue, 2 splash, and 3 black Olive Egger chicks hatched. 4 more to go! I expected all of them to be black so I really can't complain! My friend isn't going to know what to do when I tell her about the rainbow that is hatching!

EDIT: I wanted to keep the chick that came out of the grey egg but there's no way I'll remember which black chick. lol, Oh well.
 
Clutch 2 - D14 Update

I had my first real quitter, a lavender marans that looked like it had quit around D6. So I now have 5 eggs in this clutch:
1 BBS marans
1 opal legbar
2 green-laying rhodebars
1 olive egger (the dark khaki egg)

Everyone's alive, although it's hard to tell with that one really dark egg. The air cells looked all over the place, but everyone's weight is bang on target (individually, and as an average). This is why I prefer weight to aircells with shipped eggs! Allows me to freak out quite a bit less.

Hello all I still have my two cuties going strong. 4 are left to hatch it’s nearing the end of day 22. When should I be worried or candle? No internal pips. The babies were bumping into the eggs in the incubator before I took them out. I hope it didn’t hurt them. I’m getting so impatient it doesn’t seem that there’s any movement and I haven’t candled so idk if they internally pipped

I’d go ahead and candle at this point personally.
