I noticed an egg outside of the seramas broody box. I picked it up and it has pipped! not sure why it was outside? i slipped it back under the hen and noticed a pip on another egg. Its day 19 for them. not sure how long the egg was outside maybe a few hours, does it still have a chance?
They lay a tiny cream colored egg. I'm new to this breed, but seems like all of my girls want to sit on everything! Very dedicated also.
Yeah I noticed that lol caramel was a late bloomer. They all hatched at the same time.
I can't tell you how many times I've had to explain where all these new chicks came from! I got a cackle surprise box last month Didn't tell anyone till I walked through the door with them lol should have seen the looks I got. The kids always love it though! I've been looking at hatching eggs...
She had been sitting on her 5 eggs for the past week, I think she did ok. They are all alive. I'm sure she is more comfortable now though. I'm not sure how many eggs a serama can cover on average?? Maybe someone else can chime in. We are so excited!!!!!
I went to check on our broody it seems one of the other hens has decided to help her out and took some of the eggs. So now one has 3 and the other has 2. I checked them and they all look great! Nice veins! We are on day 8.
