Right, so after all the sad chicken losses over the holiday, I had to take a deep breath, and then get back on my feet. And thus, I begun the new year with some egg buying binges on eggbid, and also obtained some from a fellow chicken lover at work.

Today, the hatch has begun. I started with 168 eggs incubating. That number is slowly going down from time to time on candling results.

Today, first 3 hatched, and 5 pips. The problem is, in my overzealous excitement about incubating eggs again, I completely forgot to write on which egg what the breed was. I think, but I am not sure, that these first three candidates are Rhode Island Reds. I think.

Doing the happy hatching dance anyway (interspersed with Obamallama shimmies)
