The Eggs Have Arrived!

We were fortunate enough to receive 18 eggs.  They are a variety of chickens.  We will have to try and determine their breed once they arrive. The estimated hatch date is May 14th.  It takes about 21 days for them to develop.  They are currently baking at a warm 99.5 degrees and 55% humidity.  Who knew you had to be so precise?  We are hoping for all 18 to hatch; however we have discussed that sometimes the eggs are not healthy enough to hatch.  Stay with us when we attempt to candle the eggs and take a look at their growth from the outside in!
