My first batch is due tomorrow, but one is already starting to hatch. Granted that it might not hatch until tomorrow. It has still got me excited.

After they hatch I will see about posting some pictures. Here's to hoping all goes well, and hatch on.

Well lockdown today, just about to go and get them all sorted, Need to pop a sponge in and some paper towel. Also need to start to get the brooder ready and a few things for outside for the broody hens chicks too.

candled last night, hard to see any movement now, all but one have air sacks and look good. Took out one that i was sure wasnt fertilised and had grown nothing, cracked it open in a baggy just to make sure LOL

One egg doesnt have an air sack though, it was the one where the cell had detached early, I have had it perched up trying to get it to settle and develop but it never did. So, as i figure fair chance it wont survive anyway. i would wait until the others are starting to hatch and then pull it out and deliver it via Cesarean section

I cant see it having a chance any other way. but i will take it slow, Even if i can do enough to get its beak out so it can do its own thing from there.

unless anyone else has any suggestions?

Maybe the air cell is in a different spot. Keep a eye on that one. If it does start to pip from underneath I would turn the pip up.
