Title: I have babies
Post by: jaxchucks on March 05, 2011, 07:55

I dont know how but most of my eggs have hatched!!! I am so surprised because we woke on Monday to find we had no power, and a quick call to the elctricity board revealed there had been a fault underground and it could take up to 18 hours to fix. We only had the gas fire to keep the room warm so moved the incubator into the lounge near to the fire but not to close in case i cooked the poor little things. Out of 20 eggs 15 have hatched one little one only lasted 20 mins but the others are running around drinking water and eating so fingers crossed they will be ok.
