This is day 10 of Salt and Pepper incubating two eggs. I hope they are viable. Looking forward to see the babies in a few days.

Congrats! I think some of us forget just how exciting that very first clutch is! I never cease to marvel at every clutch, but that first one is special.

grandmabull -- That's wonderful news!

I have a pair on day 5 and I'm super excited, so I know the feeling!

You mentioned you didn't know if they were fertile, so I take it you didn't candle them?

I haven't candled them. I not experienced enough yet. It all happened so fast. But I am hoping.

grandmabull I hope this attaches...This is Mia's post and a you tube of her candling her egg. It's amazing!
We've got more eggs!
2 fertile from Molly Sue and Ivy and 2 fertile from Priscilla and Elvis! (But I gave their eggs to Molly Sue and Ivy due to Priscilla's illness.)

I made up a video trailer for your viewing pleasure!.....
