   Then we get thirteen or fifteen eggs, according to the size of the "hatcher." Then we put the hatching-hen in on them. Then we put a sack on across the box to keep the light from her. Each day we let her out for a quarter of an hour, and feed her. While she is eating we turn the eggs. When the eggs are a week set, we see are they birded. One person holds a candle, and another person puts the side of her hand over the egg and holds it near the candle. If there is white space on the top of the egg it is birded + if not it is a glog. In three weeks the chickens come out. At first they start to chip the shell according as the chickens come out you take out the shells according as the chickens come out you keep the shells till they all out. The way to call the hens in "Tuk, Tuck."
