Too Early for Feb Hatch-A-Long Thread??

What's the silver one? I love it

I think it's an Orpington hen with a Ayam Cemani rooster. That's just my best guess based on my knowledge of the sellers flock.

Can't wait to see how it grows out!

So cute! Looks like my Lavender Orpington did as a chick.

Opened up number 3 and saw a little bit of bleeding. But definitely still alive. Membrane was stuck to the baby so it wasn't having an easy time turning. So I opened up the air cell and will let it rest until the veins recede more.

I didn't hear anything in the 4th egg but went ahead and made the air hole just in case.

That's what I thought it was when I saw it! I love lavender orpingtons. They're gorgeous!

I think the duckling is close. It made the pip bigger and it is peeping now. There are 3 other pips. I put 2 of the eggs in a day later so those aren't pipped yet.

I got one in a rare breed special from my pet chicken. She was $3. The catch is, I now want more and they're pretty pricey. They got me!

Barely squeezing these in in Feb: Runner duck eggs, Easter Eggers, and Black Copper Marans all "scheduled" to hatch Thurs/Fri of next week. I don't usually incubate duck and chicken eggs together, but decided to have the Runners and EEs share an incubator.

And I just set a bunch more BCM today. Might be time to get a second hatcher because staggered hatches are going to happen!

So much fun hatching ducklings! My first hatching experience was ducks. What breed do you have?
