Iwoke up at 5:00 this morning to 5 pips on the Marans eggs! WOOT! I had to run my dog to the humane society at 6:45 and my son called me at 8:00 to tell me that a Marans had hatched! My Orp. That pipped yesterday is still taking its sweet time to make its entrance though. I know it's fine because its beak is sticking out of the hole (that's all you can see) and it keeps moving. Fingers crossed, it will make it out by tonight!
I'll update again when I get home and can type on a regular computer.
Cool! I have one Delaware hatched and 5 more pipped that I can see. And my buyer backed out on me! So, there will be a bunch of Delaware chicks and maybe two BBS Orps for sale as soon as I know how many there are.
Cyn, how I WISH I lived closer! You know I've always wanted a few Dellies for my layer flock. Sigh...
BEST of hatching vibes coming your way, Stacey!
Also, BEST of luck to you, justmeandtheflock, teddiliza, TamiHunter, and The Warden! I also go on lockdown tomorrow morning for Jersey Giants from a different bloodline than what I currently have, so I'm pretty excited about them!

Yay! Yours are popping right out of their shells, aren't they?!?! I don't think you will have any trouble unloading those babies either Cyn. Your Dellies are in high demand it seems.
