My eggs are finished up - 2 serama hatched and 4 sablepoot.
Sadly 4 serama were fully developed but didn't hatch and one sablepoot was born with scissor beak and missing eye
The others are doing well though! First out had splayed legs but seems to be fixed now.
I really want some blue eggs 😬 I wasn't planning on adding to the main flock this year after the great hatching of 2022 but... anyway that's for another hatchalong.
Don't think I've lost any more eggs yet, although I have been actually taking the old eggs that I was 95% sure werent developing...
Mine should be somewhere between 13th and 15th.
10 out of the original 18 still developing, not the worst from shipped eggs! Shocked all the serama eggs are still going... hopefully at least a few hatch 🤞
Not the best of photos but 5 out of 12 sablepoots are developing nicely. 🥰

I suppose there are sooo many...
I feel a tiny bit of your stress from remembering times I've been waiting 🤞 you can get them soon!
I put my last 6 eggs in the incubator this morning, the air cells looked pretty good! Have them sat upright today even though I bought a new incubator for this hatch that has autoturn, still...
They look great, funky little chickens 🥰
100 eggs! That must be so exciting!
I'm joining in the March HAL! Setting 12 sablepoot eggs today then adding some serama eggs that should arrive later maybe tomorrow morning. I have low expectations for the seramas hatching (not had any luck with...
