"cheep cheep" -Daily Photos

Recommended Posts

I have been sitting by the inbubator for 4 1/2 hrs, now i have the laptp by me. :)

 

we have 4 beaks chirping at me, i'd say about 5p-10p sixed holes, they first cracked at around 12 and 5p....

 

I'll take some photos in a mintue, i have LOADS of work to do tonight, but my maternal instinct is too strong and i 'need' to watch them!

 

I have been dancing round the house with excitement. Ross isnt really bothered, i made him get out of the bath when the first one popped its beak through with Shampoo all lathered on his head! LOL

 

Ill go get the camera!

Just my Lohmanns, aka Gingernuts hens with my Bantam cochin,

 

We are REALLLLLLLLY suprised the Big gingers are hatching , theres also 3 bantam cochin ones, but only one has a tiiiiiiiint hole in it,

 

do you think it'll hatch?

 

Also, i've read loooooads of books on hatching since October, one of the eggs, has a teeny tiny speck of blood on the shell, do you think it'll be ok?

 

Come on then, lets have a tally, how long did it take yos to peck out of the shell?

They can take up to 8 hours after pipping to get out, after that then I'd watch & see how they are going on!!!

You are not alone talking & cheeping to your eggs! I said good morning eggs & goodnight eggs every day until hatch!!! When they started rocking then I began to sing daisy daisy!!! Oh & when they pipped I started whilsting ' this old man, he played one..he played nick nack on my drum!!!! :lol::oops: They still recognise the whistling of this old man!!!! Very cute, they sort of stop & listen!

 

Good luck, hope they hatch before bedtime for you..if not, you will wake up to lickle chickies!

They are rocking around and sticking their beaks sometimes faces out. I called my grandad whos hatched eggs all his life, heaid their fine and to make sure the Humidity is high [which it is, 62%] or they could get stuck, which i knew anyway, he said sometimes it can take 14 hrs- 18 hrs for them to hatch!!

 

Aslong as they are chriping they should be ok apparently!

 

Crafty Hunny, youd make such a good mom, your so funny!

 

Seth would love you!

Your right, no work seems to be getting done, we are sitting in a living room with Brio train track all over the floor, [seth and ross were playing with it] we have Mika's playlist on the TV, set and i are dancing round watching his music Vid's . Hes amazing.

 

2 more are ready to hatch! cracked all the way round.

 

Seh kept saying ''POK - POK -POOOOOK '' to them!!! Amazing he knows their chickens, not ''TWeet Tweet '' birdies!

 

[speaking of seth hes just pulled 100 or so books off the book case, goodjob their all light Miffy, Elmer etc books.]

 

|I took some pics of the chicks, but not ross' pjs, i will tho]
