Here I was expecting an exactly 12-hour photoperiod today, but ours is a bit longer than that! 12 hrs and 9 minutes. Interesting!

Ok, I went back and checked different dates and the closest we came to exactly 12 hrs here in NC was on the 16th, when we got 12 hrs and 1 minute.

Our Denver photoperiod is 12 hr. 9 minutes. When I figured out last week it wasn't going to be 12 exactly, I thought that was strange also. It looks like many of us are not having a very "springy" first day of spring - it's 18 degrees and snowing right now.

Hey Mare -- our phtoperiod here in Greenville, SC is 12:08; we're not very springy here either with 43 degrees and overcast (but all the trees are blooming and the azaleas are about to pop so I shouldn't be too fussy.
Let's see if we can get Spring in Denver for Easter -- looks like we might be coming out for a quick visit....

Aaahhh yes, Spring in Denver: Heavy wet snow, wind, thunderstorms, lightening. Now what you really want Mary is Winter in Denver. Sunny skies, 60-70 deg., dry as a bone. But alas, you're too late

Did your egg stand up? Ours didn't 
We tried it at 8:30 a.m., noon and late afternoon. What happened??

Does anything that's "SUPPOSED" to happen in Denver, ever really happen? Maybe the egg was affected by altitude?
