    Turken chick with fluffy neck?

    I recently hatched an assortment of pure bred chickens. I got two turken eggs, green and all. One hatched. It has a fluffy neck! He's still super adorable, but no missing fluff on the beck like a turken should have?! Is it normal for newly hatched checks (>1 day) to still have fluffy necks?

    Do eggs rest before pipping/hatching?

    Hello everyone! I am concerned for my 6 shipped Serama eggs. They went into lockdown a few days ago. I candled them before they went into lockdown and every egg looked alive and healthy! They started wiggling a day or so after going into lockdown. Everything seemed fine, but they are now 18.5...
