    Peeps

    By jodie | February 28, 2008

    Lots and lots of peeps around here!!! Seventeen eggs became fifteen eggs a few days ago (we lost two more… or they never developed… or ???). In the last twenty-four hours, those fifteen eggs have turned into nine stunningly beautiful chicks, with six eggs still incubating.

    Hopefully, we’ll have six more chicks in the next day or so. We’ll continue updating. Until then…

    Update: Of 18 eggs set, 1 was clear and 2 died in first couple of days. Of the remaining 15, 10 hatched, three were dead in shell, and 2 had died along the way. The proportion that hatched was reasonable, given the 2 that died along the way.  We won’t know for a few weeks how many of each sex we have.
