Good luck with your broody, OohLaLa!! Sounds like a plan to split the eggs. I hope she'll do great!

I got my tracking number for my eggs from Papa last night.. Est delivery date is Monday 5/5. :clap
 
Yay!!! Can't wait for pics!

CD- I was actually coming to ask you.. If a package was *processed* in CA at almost 9pm last night, could it really be here by tomorrow?

Yes, definitely. That means it will be on the plane today, arrive at the sort facility in Atlanta tonight, and head out to you tomorrow.
 
In the meantime, I've also got five chicks hatched from the eggs leftover from the school project. One egg that I got from abmaddox is a huge brown egg (more orange-tinted) and quit almost at the end of his zipping. Not sure why, but I think the others in there that already hatched, may have tossed him around a lot from their movement. And then I had a green egg quit on me right as lockdown started. One silkie egg and the two speckled marans eggs aren't externally pipped yet. I'll candle them later to see what is going on, but the house is a bit cool to take them out right now.

The six remaining have all made external pips and are still alive, I'm just waiting on the zips now!

But I will need to get outside today and scrub the hell out of the brooder. I've still got some chicks in there, but the younger ones are starting to die off very rapidly. I lost THREE last night that I just hatched last week. I asked my nephew to clean it for me recently, and he did, but I'm betting he didn't REALLY clean it. I bet he just gave it a quick rinse and left gunk in there. So I'm willing to bet there is a bacteria farm going on under that bedding, and that's why the babies are dying.
 
(He's trying to give me a hard time bc I'm excited. And apparently giving you a hard time too since I assured him you know more about this than he does.. Hehe)
