Thanks, Sally. I should have just gone to your signature to begin with. I was being lazy. And I do remember that the yolk is absorbed last. The other info I thought I included, I didn't. That is what I get for trying to type while paying attention to a movie. It looks like they drowned. She said...

Hello, hatchers! I have a question. I know I should know the answer, but I have forgotten and ... Well, here it is. The neighbor took five BCM eggs to hatch last month. I knew they didn't hatch, and didn't want details. Unfortunately, she shared today. All made it to the final week, and died...

I wish I could have stayed. The dog was home alone for 14 hours though, and I had a house to pack up, and get moved! Next time, will you share your oj? The one who squealed may not have told you that with enough orange juice, I don't care who does what anymore. Or maybe she did! Ha ha!

Her beak actually looks better now. I was going to cull her a few weeks ago. Then I realized she was laying. I thought the Ameraucana was just a good layer! I hate breaking her from brooding, but she couldn't take the stress of not eating. Eating takes a total of maybe an hour daily. Besides, I...

I am done hatching for a while. I just wish the EE would understand that. She keeps trying. This is the third time in a month. Poor Cadbury.

This one you did not. :-D

I am soooooo glad I did eggtopsies outside. 2 infertile, one formed with internal pip, two quit this week ... And one exploded on me. Hysterical only because I was outside. Boy do my hands stink!

Baby had her chicks out this morning. Five more eggs went under the next broody. She growled at me the whole time. Looks like she is going to be a heck of a Momma! She is 2 weeks behind the first, so the new eggs will start hatching under her, and whatever doesn't before she gets up will go in...

I have had no problems.

I have been busy the past several days, and have not had time to read threads. Broody #1 hatched her first baby Tuesday morning. A black body with a RIR head. Number 2 looks like a red sexlink, and #3 came out last evening. It is yellow. She should have one more chick. Unfortunately, a hen has...

Chickenpooplady and I are on the same schedule. I would hate for any chick to die because it was shrink wrapped, and I didn't help. This hatch is going to be bad enough as it is. So, my question is do I sit on my hands, or assist? I see no egg rocking or internal pipping.

Incubator was due today. I candled, added another sponge, and now I continue waiting. At least I think there is still a chance! Broody one is due Tuesday. Broody two in two weeks. One with a injured foot seems broody. I gave her one egg tonight to see. I am willing to give her three. And broody...

I put the eggs in lock down. It is not looking good. I am betting I get one to hatch, and it is just one of my mixes. Oh well. I am trying to keep my numbers down anyway. Broody #1 seems to be doing fine. Broody #2 has 11 eggs and a shell that was part of the initial 5. I think 2 eggs are...
