The eggs have arrived, all the way from Connecticut. I have no idea how this hatch is going to turn out, being that the eggs were shipped that far and that it is currently mid-summer. The eggs were packed well, but a couple of them had completely detached air sacs. I let them rest for about 19 hours and put them into the incubator before I left for work in the morning.

21 Days until hatch

So what breed did I end up getting? D'uccles! The parent birds are black mottled, but carry the blue gene, so I could end up with some blue mottled chicks as well.

I will post another update when I candle in 7 days from now. |
