[Bens-Hens]

Things must be getting exciting in your place about now?

Got an update Frenchiegirl?

2 pips. At least, that's all I can see lol. The quail eggs have probably started pipping, but it's hard to tell on those tiny eggs!

Up to 8 pips in the chicken eggs!!!!! I am super excited. 2 pips are my frizzle eggs, 1 is a OEGB, and the other 5 are Americauna/Americauna mix hens covered by either my silike/cochin roo or my americauna roo. I can't wait to see what they look like

Great time. My family loved the experience, we are already planning our next hatch!

You might have 8 wet ones by now?!

Spot on, Bens-Hens! 5 Americana eggs have hatched, and 3 bantam eggs. Others are zipping around like crazy! The quail eggs have no change, though

Hopefully some of those will hatch. All the Americauna chicks have feathered feet, so I know who their daddy is! But today is the actual hatch date, so maybe we'll have some quail by the end of the day.

I have a problem.. My incubator freaked out and was at 104-106 last night for maybe 4-6 hrs. I'm on day 16.I candled and there is some sluggish movement this morning. Do you guys think they will be OK?

 

[frenchiegirl21]

Up to 12 chicks. One chick dead in shell

at least one quail will hatch, I'm not sure about the others.... 3 bantam eggs have had no change at all, so I'm not expecting those to hatch. The 12 that have hatched are super cute though!

 

[candyfloss]

Well I was not expecting this today... we got our first baby!

our FIRST ever hatched baby!!

Wow! Such a cool feeling.

What breed is it?
