Action!

Hi! It's Mrs. Shields! I went to check on the eggs this morning and the little speckled egg was pipping (it was starting to crack the shell) and had about an inch long place all the way pipped. It must have been sleeping because I didn't hear anything.

I went back a couple hours later and saw that a large crack had come out from the spot that was pipped. I hope we have a baby chick soon!
