Scrumdidlyump’s First Hatchapolooza

[Scrumdidlyump]

Day 4
14 eggs from my silkie roo and cinnamon queen and buff orpington hens.
I think both will produce sex linked chicks?
Shells are dark, so tricky to see. Definitely movement and development in 3!
THIS IS SO COOL

So if i started on a Sunday, lockdown begins in Thursday, right?

I have someone who wants all the girls and one boy... not sure what I will do with the other roos. How many roosters do you think my neighbors would put up with?
What are you going to do with yours?

Day 18 lockdown.
Removed turner, monitoring for temp change. Added some h2o, humidity at 30% and rising. All eggs positioned on sides with aircell larger end up on shelf liner.
Fingers crossed.
Toes too.
