Yahooo!!!! Day 20 w/ Blue Ameraucanas! *PIPS*

[Smitty's Farm]

Well, I finally see some beak action on Egg#4. Yahoo!!!!!!

Come on chickie! It keeps sticking it's little beak out and rocking the egg. Hopefully it will zip soon.

Egg #5, the one that pipped on the bottom is still active. I worry that it will stick it's little beak through the holes of the egg grid and get a snoot full of water.

Egg#6 will wiggle if I talk to it, but will rest otherwise.

The rest are the same.

Well, one of us has got to get some sleep tonight. Guess it will have to be me!

Cool, glad you got a 'full tank' at least.
Because I'm running low on sleep and gotta go to bed. Wish I could hang out and wait with you, but my Full Throttle is looooong gone.
Sure hope you have all the babes before midnight

DH wants the computer, but I'll try and check once more before I pass out...​

I don't want to pass out and miss all the fun tonight! No! Mine will all hatch at 3 a.m, you just watch.

Whew! I don't know if I have a full tank or not. I think I'm tired from the adrenoline rush all day.

Cyn, I don't want to miss out on the fun either, so I'm hanging in there. Don't they almost always hatch at bed time? LOL!!!!

Egg#4,5,&6 are still active, but no Zip. Egg #4 can poke it's beak all the way out of it's pip.

When are they going to come out?????

 

[wegotchickens]

When they're darn good and ready

OK, I gotta give up. Will say a hatching prayer before I go to bed...

 

[Smitty's Farm]

Geeze!!!!!! This is driving me crazy! No changes.

Chick #4 keeps poking it's beak out, wiggling, sometimes peeping, but won't come out to play.

I keep checking egg #5 by shinning a flashlight underneath where it's pipped to make sure I still see it breathing.

Egg #6 hasn't showed it's beak yet. It looks like a mexican jumping bean sometimes, but I don't see any improvement.

It almost sounds like we're hatching the exact same batch of chicks, Kim! They are being really mean to their mom.

And the loudmouth Wellie just wont put all that energy into getting out of her pkg!

Sure sounds like it. Maybe there is something in the air. Mean chickies, bad, bad, bad chickies!

Your Wellie sounds like my chick #4. She is giving the beak show, wiggling and waling, but not using the energy to break free.

I was worried about #6 b/c it stopped movong, but I guess it was just resting.

I am worried about #5 b/c it's pipping on the bottom.

They are teasing us!
