Another Scourger of a Day

The temperature feels more like late Summer. Here's a picture of a future egg layer. She is almost 5 weeks.

# 6 and # 9  and #C Red Golden Pheasant eggs appear to be pipping when the peep works a hole into the shell for it's inevitable emergence. The next step will be zipping which can take upward of 24 hrs after pipping. At a quick glance you wouldn't notice the small tiny crack, but if you look carefully you can see a raised bump or tiny crack.





#6 egg obviously was the first egg to pip. 


I'll be documenting this hatch as I can. #6 and #9 are more oval eggs.  # C is a rounder egg.  Hopefully more of the eggs will begin pipping.  I'd like to get worthy hatch.
