Another sad candling day for the McClunes

I was still unsure at our last candling about two eggs, so when Wendy got off her nest today, I had another look. It was very obvious about the eggs that have chicks in them. They are a very dark colour (apart from their air sac). It was pretty very cool to see.

The two we lost today were a Blue laced Wyandotte and BBV (Blue laced barnevelder). Very upsetting again. I still struggle with this side of it. But the good news is that we have 9 beautiful eggs waiting to hatch next week.

Wendy's nest is looking so empty now.

I can't wait til she has some beautiful chicks to fill it up again.

This last week and a half has taken forever to pass. Hoping the next week a half will go quicker!
