O means those eggs are really dark brown right maroon looking. Pretty eggs

Well I think one egg looked sloshy but three hatched and maybe one more coming at least today or tomorrow and the others are still developing I have been hand turning and thencandling at night. Just to see. I think they'll do okay besides the one. They still have 9 more days I think maybe 10

My husband has one of those thanks for the idea.

Well my husband came home and well he is stronger than I.. lol got it off with no struggle lol. So one chick is out now but I know it will be different bc other hens would lay when she got up and well there is still 12 days since being in the incubator but under her they were probably there for...

I have hatched roos in the beginning of the year so this one became my favorite and we saved him from the others we butchered. He's really sweet and looks out for the girls. So recently he'll bite at my boots and then the girls do it too..I think it's bc I'm getting ready to fill their water...
