Disappointing news

There was a GPO hatch due today - not a single egg is showing any sign of hatching. I will leave them until Friday and then we'll have to look at them.

I'm not sure what to do about candling eggs - I bought a proper candler but most of the eggs we have incubated seem to have thick shells which the light does not penetrate; the only eggs I have successfully candled have been the Sebright bantam ones which are very thin.

It's still raining - enough said about that.
