Thank you Sally!! As always huge help!!

Hey Sally if I stop turning chicken eggs at day 14 is that too soon?

I can attest to that! Had a bunch of turkey eggs and could remember when I put them in the bator -forgot to add to my calendar- but I put them in the hatcher and so far last 2 days 6 have hatched surprised the heck outta me when I opened the bator to see 3 little cuties peeping at me!

Sally just received shipped pheasant eggs and some were pointy end up. But air cells were a tad jiggly

I am curious about this new method of storing eggs pointy end up? I'm not sure it's better....anyone wanna weigh in on this?

Sally give it time ...all my ducks hatched after my turkeys and it killed me to sit on my hands

Sally.... 5 baby croad langshans and sportsman hummin with turkey eggs and duck eggs...come a long way from 2 yrs ago eh!? Lol

X2 that's horrible I'm so sorry!!!

I am way behind on this thread. But anyone have a preference for cabinet incubators and why one vs the other?

Fabulously interesting !!! Go oz! Will be getting my Wild West chicken ranch built so no more chicken mutts or dead floaters and seperate breed pens FINALLY! Hope by end of march they will be moved in.

So 7 babies total with last being assisted due to membranes sticking but so far all ok will leave them until the last one drys out then move them to the brooder

Hey 3 babies all mutts! Hopefully good layers Possible combinations: 2 yellow maybe NHR/del cross 1 dark BR/CM or CM/PWR WE shall see

Oh yes I was just lazy and didn't mark them again. Figure when i candle it's my reference point

none that I can see tried to candle a few but Brinsea is difficult to lift and replace easily. unlike my styrobators...but I will try and candle again in a bit. Just really bummed about not turning up the humidity like I should have. in my styrobators I never kept the humidity up above 50%...

Well I just figured out my problem...I should have had the RH% up to 65% for hatching...hopefully they are not all shrink wrapped... I will give it another day or so and see what happens! can't believe I could be so dumb...the styrobators I'm used to and this was a rookie mistake! oh well...

So anyone have experience with the brinsea incubators? I'm on day 22 and no pips yet. Just wondering if I should worry. I turned up the heat to 100 and up. The humidity from 45 to 50% but this is the first time I've used it so not familiar with it

Mutts! not sure if they are cuckoo maran/WPR mix or pure? LOL and some other mutts SF/NHR/Del cross since I have roos and hens all together. should be interesting stuff

Hi Sally! well I've gone and done it again. My girls started laying again and I've been collecting for what?...you guessed ...HATCHING! I gave up on hatching after losing many of my birds last year and I just couldn't bring myself to do it again. Mostly because I was exhausted and ****** off...

question: broddy hen hatched 6 of 8 chicks how do I wait before taking the eggs out from under her? don't want them to go bad.
