Well we did it! My first hatch! 5 out of 6 fertile at 7 days, three hatched so far, another one pipped so fingers crossed! but no real hopes for the fifth but will give it a bit longer. Not bad for ebay eggs and a total hatching novice! I'm well chuffed! Thrilled to bits actually - can't stop going and looking at them!

Aww...they're really lovely!!
It's a fantastic feeling isn't it??
Fingers crossed with the others

Take a piccie every day ( as if you need telling!!!!)...and then compare the wing feathers each day- it really is quite surprising how quickly they change- and the sweet little baby tail feathers like a fluffy frill just suddenly appears!!

You got face ache yet from all the grinning????

well done!
