Mine are hatching now. It is day 21 here.

4 Sebrights (1 has completed hatching, 2 more are zipped and pushing and should be out any time now, and 4th has yet to pip).
2 EEs (one has pipped and zipped but is slow; the other has yet to pip).
5 brown "mystery eggs" from a mixed flock that is very friendly toward one another (hehehe). One of these eggs has pipped and zipped but is taking its sweet time. The other 3 have yet to pip, but one of them has been rocking around in the bator all day, so I think it's safe to say that SOMETHING is happening in there.
 
I have 23 eggs in the bator now due to hatch next week! I have a dozen pure black and splash silkies and 11 mutts!

I have 12 Silkies
4 California White Hen X either an OE or FBCM
1 EE hen X either an OE or FBCM
1 EE X Silkie
5 Brown eggs X either an OE or FBCM (brown egg is either from Gold Sex Links, Black Sex Links, or Buff Orpington)
 
14 seramas in my hova bator and a mixture of coturnix and bobwhite in a homebuilt my chukars have either not started laying or they are not fertile quiet yet I just had 3 bob chicks hatch yesterday
 
I have 4 Pekin X Welsh Harlequin and 6 Cayuga eggs in my homemade incubator and the same number under my Pekin hen. It happened again that I bought hatching eggs and found her setting on a nest the same day! All are due to hatch around March 8th. My Brinsea Octagon 20 is supposed to be delivered day after tomorrow, so I'm busy dreaming about what to incubate next!
