Who's Setting Eggs This Week[end]? [August 8-14]

[Brookhavens]

I came home from work to find a baby lemon pekin had hatched and is chirping away. I am so thrilled, I almost cried with the sheer wonder of it. At least 2 more are pipping, 1 lemon pekin and 1 polish but as I can't see much through the little window there could be more. Totally amazing! My first chickie ever!

Well, I'm thinking mine are done. And nothing. So bummed. Cost me a lot of money and effort, not to mention the babies tht died I float tested this morning, and they all had developed, but no motion was observed.
No idea what went wrong

Sorry to hear. So sad when that happens. I started with 15 and am down to 6 and I am getting a bad feeling starting that none are going to make it. All were alive when we went into lock down but nothing so far (Day 20.)

 I am on day 20. I was just spoiled on my last few hatch, cause they hatched early. 

These are making me wait the full time. 

I hate that !
