Well, the four eggs my hen was sitting on have hatched.

Took them out from underneath the hen yesterday morning and put them in an incubator, then went to work. When I came home, three had hatched (the last hatched overnight). When they're a few weeks old, I'll give them back to the hen to raise.

Unfortunately, they're half Araucana and half Leghorn, so they're going to be boring old white chickens, but hopefully they're not all boys and their eggs will be colored.
