    Day 23

    It's day 23 on my cochin eggs. 4 have hatched 2 of the eggs still look like they could hatch but no pip. They are dark with the air sack on bottom and I do see veins along the bottom where it meets the air sac. Are they still alive? How long should I leave them in there before I give up?

    Lumps

    As an update for this morning, she seems to be more timid this morning. She is still walking around and eating and drinking. But not perky like she has been. More slow moving. Still no other symptoms besides that.

    Lumps

    I will have to do some more research on lymphoid leucosis. But is this something that is going to affect my whole flock? Will it ever go away? Can I hatch new chickens or bring new chickens in or will they all be affected as well?
