I have dark eggs too, but I judge the light ones with and have faith.

I have 29 black austrolurps due today. Just in time for NYD thats if the chicks decide they want to hatch on day 21 or 22. Lil stinkers lol

I was in the kitchen making NYE cookies, heard a loud peep, and looked up to see one of eggs rocking like crazy. I'm so excited. My first hatch.

Yeah it could be a couple more days and you'll have babies.

Friday is day 21. It's hard not to just sit there and watch the eggs.

We have a pip!

 

[Katbird01]

2 down 2 to go. One has pipped nothing from the other one yet.

I know to leave the chicks in the bator but can I pull the old shells out? It's driving me crazy seeing them in there.

No pips on my one egg. Hoping it's not a dud! Looked good on LD so I'm still hopeful! This will be the first chick hatched from my brahmas

Leave the shells in, you don't want to open the Bator and let the humidity out. Clean them out when you remove chicks (and I know how you feel, the shells drive me nuts too!).
