    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    All 12 silkies hatched last night! ❤️ 10 have been given to my broody hen, 2 have splay leg so we are correcting that before giving them to her as well 🤞🏼 This hatch had 8 paint and/or white, 1 black, 1 blue, 1 splash and 1 partridge.

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    10 chicks hatched! And I think I have a handful of paints which makes me so happy ❤️ 2 more eggs in there but not sure if they will hatch. One definitely pipped around midnight, the other not so sure. My humidity is hovering around 80-90% now (set for 60%) so wondering if that would have a...

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I take the lid apart to clean. Watched a YT tutorial by the Brinsea channel when I first got the incubator - otherwise I bet I would have done it wrong and broke the thing lol. But I let it sit for at least a week so it REALLY dry. I find it so much easier to get all the fluff that way.

    HOW did you get this pic???? I’ve been trying to take a pic of my pipped eggs in my ovation 28 and it will not focus. Do you have a cam inside with them? (If so, which one? Because this is a genius idea to me!)

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    Day 20 here and my husband SWEARS he heard chirping and saw one egg bouncing around. For the last 4 hours I’ve been spying on them every 5 minutes and have seen and heard nothing. I think he’s more excited than I am and imagined it 😂

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    Officially in lockdown with my remaining 12 silkie eggs! Candled today and they’re all going strong, dancing around lol I also realized today that I had a 100% fertility rate for this coop in this hatch (which is also my first test hatch for this group). So excited to see what hatches out. I’m...

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    12 eggs looking strong on day 14! Fingers crossed they all make it. Can’t wait to see what colours hatch! 7 were duds and I had one early quitter before day 8.

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I set silkie eggs on March 7. Didn’t even occur to me that if I waited 2 days it would line up with Easter! 20 eggs set but I’m not sure what hatch rate will be. This is my first time incubating eggs from these young ladies.
