    None of the 22 eggs I placed in my Nurture Right 360 incubator hatched!

    Thanks. I do not have a problem with temperature fluctuations, but only with the humidity. I think that the early drop to 26 degrees one night stopped the developement of all but possibly 4 eggs. There was nothing when I candeled them at about 10 days or so. The four that seemed possible...

    Will do. I do not know if it can be calibrated, but that is a good idea to look into. It has worked satisfactorily in the past. I think it could be better though.

    I do wet hatches. I was really looking forward to this group hatching as I lost 6 hens and my spare rooster (who was going to be gorgeous) to a couple of hunting dogs. No blood, the necks were just snapped. I thought I had used the eggs from the hens before the attack. Thankfully my husbands...

    It might be time to find a new incubator. This temp. fluctuation has become worse over the years.

    None of the 22 eggs I placed in my Nurture Right 360 incubator hatched!

    I have been incubating both chicken and goose eggs for about 3 years with this incubator. At least half of the 22 chicken eggs usually hatch if not more. Sainme with the goose eggs, about half of the eggs (either 6 or 8) hatch. I have never had none of the eggs hatch. I did notice that...

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    Well all of my eggs hatched and I Baby Curely has chicks under her but I do not know how many. I ended up with only 5 viable goose eggs, but they hatched. I took the eggs from all three of the nests. Two are quite large, they were also the first to hatch and the other three are about a third...

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    My Baby Curely seems to be getting tired. She is a very protective goose. I finally saw her outide with the rest of the group at grape treat time in the afternoon. Then she wandered a bit, took a short bath and went back to work! I wonder who is going to claim raising the goslings this...

    Rooster developing black and also white patches on comb, hen with raised white spots

    I am in Northern Nevada where is has been a mild winter, not much rain some snow, and many cloudy days this year. That could be an explanation for the rooster, but not so sure about the hen. She has had this for several seasons without change (they could be spreading, but very, very slowly if...

    Rooster developing black and also white patches on comb, hen with raised white spots

    Several months ago I noticed one hen with raised white spots that look like calcium deposits. They do not rub off, at least not with minimal pressure. They do not seem to be growing or spreading; they do they do not seem to bother her or change her behavior. Her comb has always been a light...

    Help? Hen with white spots on her comb.

    Did you ever determine what the cause of the white spots? Did they eventually go away? I have a hen that has had what look like small (large pin head size) areas that look like calcium deposits. They do not rub off, at least not easily. She has had these for some time. I do not remember...
