My chicks are hatching out like popcorn now, 2 days late. The “Halloween hatch” consists of 2 Oct. 30th turkeys, 1 Oct. 31st chick, 1 Nov. 1st chick, and 5 Nov. 2nd chicks so far.
Most weirdly staggered hatch I’ve ever had. The chicken eggs were all set the same day, and the turkey eggs only 7...
I’ve had one chick hatch today, so I’ve at least got a Halloween baby lol. Both the turkeys hatched yesterday. No more pips so far. I wasn’t expecting the eggs to hatch until late tonight, or maybe tomorrow.
First turkey hatched. Little fellow was too impatient to see the world and decided to hatch a day or two early. Maybe I’ll get some Halloween-hatched chicks, or the other turkey will hatch tomorrow though.
Im down to 2 chocolate turkey eggs hatching Oct. 31st-November 1st. One died, unfortunately, but the other two look good right now. At10 chicken eggs that'll hatch that day as well.(3 BcW polish, 7 WCB polish/ayam cemani crosses).
I have 4 more chocolate eggs that’ll hatch maybeee November...
Candled my eggs again. :confused:
My 3 chocolate turkey eggs set to hatch Halloween are looking good. There’s 10 chicken eggs in with them, set to hatch Oct. 22-23. All 10 look good two.
For the chicken eggs set to hatch Halloween, i had to toss one rotten egg. I think I may need to up calcium...
Same :oops: I couldn't hold out any longer and candled my polish eggs yesterday, which I set on the 11th. I mean.... I can now say they're all fertile at least lol. It's so pointless candling them so early(since the veins are so tiny), but it's so so hard to resist.
3/6 of the turkey eggs look fertile right now. It’s iffy, but hopefully they are!
I’m going to be setting chicken eggs tomorrow just to be sure I can join in on the Halloween hatch though.
I have 7 WCB polish/ ayam cemani cross eggs and 2 BCW polish eggs saved up to incubate tomorrow.
This is exciting! I’ve just been craving the Halloween feeling lately 😅 so I may join in. I’m planning on setting some chocolate turkey eggs tomorrow. Maybe I’ll postpone it a day, or maybe there’ll be a late Halloween Hatcher.
that is- if they’re even fertile 😫. I’m seriously hoping so. I...
