So the bad news is, we didn't have any eggs hatch. We had an issue with the new icubator and nothing developed. We cracked all 40 eggs and they were all empty. No more than 1 weeks development in only a few of the eggs.
Good news is we have another batch in there and they are going great! It has been keeping a much steadier temperature. We are even seeing some serious development in the eggs! So 21 days from Easter takes us to about May 15th or so. Let's keep our fingers crossed :)
We do have other worse news. One of our chickens died. We think it was either shocked or trampled since it was only a few hours after the neighbor's German Shepard was in our yard. Well, it is part of owning chickens!
