We have 3 pipped in the incubator, 1 under a broody & 2 under another broody & we can hear them cheeping! So far they all seem to be the Nankin's. Didn't have a lot of success with candling. 1 def.dead Old Cotswold Legbar, but the others were very inconclusive. (more like I can't make head or tail out of them!)

Back to top CP Moderator Joined: 13 Apr 2005 Posts: 15394 Location: Hampshire Posted: Sat Apr 30, 2005 8:57 am    Post subject: Surprisingly, yes I did get to bed! This morning we have 2 hatched in the incubator plus at least 2 pipped. 1 hatched under broody, Fiddie. With 2 more pipped & cheeping! 2 under broody, Bella, pipped & cheeping! She kicked 1 out which we have put back in the incubator (right or wrong?) The strongest hatchers at the moment seem to be the Nankin. Then the 2 Old Cotswold Legbar's. The Welsumers were hard to see when candled, so I don't know if they are good or not! I'll take more pictures later!

There are 3 more hatched under broodies. Looks like the 6 Welsumers are no-go's. 3 O.C.Legbars pipped, the other 3 - nothing yet.
