Valentine's hatch-a-long

I now have all 4 mutts out and 1 RIR. The other 3 are in the process of zipping. One has the top circle of the shell almost opening like a trap door. It is quite cute. I'll help any stragglers around 9 pm tonight as I won't be able to watch or prevent the hatched chicks from sitting on the air hole in the eggs.

What day are you on?

I set the eggs close to noon on the 22nd. So today at noon would be the end of 21*24 hours. I have noticed that my hatches tend to be a few hours early to a few hours late but not more than 24 hours off typically. I set eggs about once a week so most times the bator settings don't change it is just how long the eggs were stored before I set them. But this time the power went out for a while so I'm sure that is why all of the eggs did not hatch by noon.

All of the chicks made it out on their own. I pulled the first 4 out of the bater once I could see the others had zipped enough not to shrink wrap. So other than the 1 non fertile egg I tossed early on, mine made it.

Mine are supposed to hatch today, but I've had troubles with the temp going up. They might have been cooked if they don't hatch by Monday, TSC here I come!

[JDchicks]

Nope, all quiet here too. But I am still on day 20.
