..after 14 days
Well, today MEREDITH has been sitting for 2 weeks. Truvey came over and helped me candle. We candled 6 eggs... 5 were definitely fertile and one was questionable.
When candling, you can actually see the shape of the baby chick under the shell and the air sac! If the other 2 eggs are fertile, we'll have at least SEVEN chicks. (One egg of the original nine was rotten) That's a big brood for MEREDITH.
Here's some pix of MEREDITH taking maternity breaks. Also pictured a noctural photo of the coop with MEREDITH in her nesting box.
