    One last update on this hatch ! I went to clear out the dud eggs this morning and one started peeping & I realized it was half zipped on the underside of the egg! That chick hatched shortly after. I opened holes in the remaining eggs and found 2 chicks still going so I put them back in! I...

    My last march hatchers are sneaking in before 12:00 cut off 😂 I have 3 eggs zipping. 72 fluffy in the brooder. 9 eggs left doing nothing I’m assuming are duds and 1 I found while transferring that died after pipping… not sure what happened on that one. Anyway that make 75 chicks which is...

    It IS stressful and very hard not to try and intervene. I’ve been hatching for years and still not as masterful at sitting on my hands as I’d like 😂 hope your last bcm egg shows sone activity. It if not it sounds like your having good success. There will just pretty much always be some that...

    That looks fine! There can be all kinds of variety in how the pips look but that looks totally ok. If it’s moving its likely resting up and absorbing!

    Piles of fluff 😊 I don’t have a final count yet as some are still hatching but so far there are some really fun colorings in this batch! Lots of naked necks and a few muffs.

    I was shocked. It was one of my daughters cemanis and I told her for a month not to get attached to it because I thought it was a goner. Chicks can be so surprising which ones turn around and which don’t.

    yay! We are hatch buddies, although you are farther ahead than me. I have 1 out 😀 I wonder about those failure to thrive chicks… I had 1 last year that stayed tiny for months and then all of a sudden caught up and now I see no difference.

    Hope you have some peepers soon! Congrats on your grand baby! I have eggs on day 20… no peeping or pips yet. I think I counted them but forgot to write down how many 😬 oops. It was part of an epic 350 + egg shuffle and candling fest. But hoping for fluffies soon.

    Sorry you had a tough hatch. It’s really awful when things go wrong like that. but glad you had a few make it and that this one is showing some promise.

    That seems like it would be ok since it’s pure coconut oil even if not rated as good grade.

    speaking of chicks in demand, I have been trying to rehome 6 week old chicks for 6 weeks and haven't had one peep. This is so surprising! But I know it’s very regional what people are looking for.

    It is so hard. So so hard to wait lol. Every time I’m convinced that nothing will actually hatch. I have a big pile of fluffers now. I pulled out the remaining eggs and put them in my brinsea where I can see them. There are about 15 left sone with pips.

    I have chicks hatching today in the hatch shelf in my dickeys cabinet and It drives me crazy. I can’t see ANYTHING in there😡 I guess I really need to upgrade to the transparent door.

    There hatching away now😀 the last 2 have been neckies which just give me such a kick as chicks. Meanwhile in overstuffed incubator land I sort of solved my capacity problem by using a piece of wire shelf as a grid to put eggs in in the hatch shelf in the Dickey’s. (Which I don’t usually use)...
