Well, as much as I'm up & down the stairs today I might as well of skipped boot camp class this morning.

No more action, but I still hear peeping. I think it might be from egg#2 that doesn't have a very big pip. It sounds like it really wants to come out very soon.

It's going to be a long day!

Come on out little ones!

Go, chickies! My first of six Ameraucanas have pipped finally! Hope one of them is a pretty splash pullet.

Farmer Kitty~ I love all the graphics that you post!

Speckled~ I'll send vibes your way that you get the pretty splash that you want.

OK, back to the basement. I'm going to have buns of steel.

 

[wegotchickens]

So? New measurements (and NOT of the buns...)?

Don't worry, I wouldn't give out the buns measurement. LOL!!!!

OK, Egg 2 is still the same, barely a pip, but do think all the peeping I'm hearing is coming from that egg.

Egg # 4 is starting to crack a little lengh wise, but not zipping around the egg just yet.

Egg#6 is just a bigger pip w/ a little cracking.

I haven't seen a beak from any of them yet, but I'm trying to stay busy and not stare at them. We all know that a watched hatch won't hatch.....like watching for water to boil.

Nothing from Egg 1, 3, & 5. Two of these eggs are the ones with misplaced air sacs, so I'm not sure what will happen with them.

How wild that only the evens are hatching, so far.

Yeah, you better go for a loooong walk. Those chickies could take all day.
Maybe they'll wait until your daughter gets home from school so she can watch one come tumbling out of the shell!

Yea, that is so weird that it's just the even numbered ones so far.

That would be so cool if they wait on her. She is not going to want to go to piano now, I'm sure.

I'm going to go take the shower that I never got this morning to help from smearing my nose prints all over the incubator.

I also need to go get chicken food, but everything else on my list can wait until tomorrow. Well, I guess we also do need groceries at some point.

I hope these babies don't decide to hatch while I'm at the 8th grade trip chaperone meeting tonight. Geeze, that would be my luck!

Isn't it assured that since that's when you don't want them to hatch that's exactly when they'll arrive?
