chicken eggs

I have a friend that is Hatching eggs with her kids as a homeschool project,They started incubating about three hours ago in the incubator. Will it affect the eggs if they delay them by a day and start it tomorrow now after they’ve already been incubating for three hours? they didn’t realize...

I'll be doing a hatch-along with twelve eggs! I might as well tell you guys about the eggs! x3 Easter eggers with a grassy green colouration and a cyan hue. x6 Silkie bantams. (Most likely white in colouration, as the mother was a white silkie.) x3 unknown eggs, that are possibly...

Just have a micro egg and was curious to know why my hen would lay this and what’s inside? Mini yolk and white? All yolk? All white? lol I don’t want to crack it yet because it’s so cute.

Unique eggs are my favorite!

Time for an other hatch a long. I set 41 eggs this evening. Feel free to chose an or to egg and name it. The eggs are from our flock. I’m not sure what breeds they are. 36 and 37 are OEGB. I think the green eggs are from our starlight green Egger.

I have 4 wyandott chickens who are about 1.5 years ild. Just recently one had its feathers pulled and we had thought it was due to infighting. The hen that had some feathers pulled stopped laying eggs consistently. Just yesterday something got in their cage around 4:00 pm. When i went to out...

Eggs collected from wyandotte, orpington and ameraucauna hens.

I have a situation where I need about 10-14 eggs for the beginning of March. I have 8 hens, but I only want eggs from 2-4 specific hens (I can tell their eggs apart). There is one however that I want the majority of eggs from. Problem is she has only layed 3 eggs so far. One on the 14th, one on...

Is it okay to candle chicken eggs every day. Oh and duck eggs

Hi, so I want to preface by saying that I'm not normally a chicky person. A friend brought over farm fresh eggs but when I was making my breakfast yesterday one of the eggs was too fresh if you know what I mean. I felt really bad about killing an egg that had a viable embryo in it and so I...

I candled some eggs from the same batch and the same flashlight, two bantam eggs were different colors inside. One was red and one was yellow inside when I candled them. They were refrigerated so they probably aren't very good for hatching but I'm curious why the two eggs are different colors...

I know the chances of this working is very very low but its an exciting and fun little experiment! I am currently in Denmark and bought some organic free range chicken eggs. There are 6 and they were refrigerated so this should be interesting! Right now I have them sitting to reach about room...

I have 9 chicken eggs in my incubator right now. They were just put in maybe four hours ago. I am seeking advice on how to increase my hatch rate as this incubator isn’t the greatest one out there. 1: I heard that you shouldn’t turn the eggs in the first 24 hours. Is this true? 2: My...

Hi everyone, This question is probably weird, but The plug outlets in the room the incubator is in stopped working, so I moved the incubator downstairs and replugged it elsewhere. I would like to move it upstairs today if the outlets get fixed but i'm afraid of stressing the eggs. Would it be...

Hi, I have a beautiful, antique, PETERSIME #4 REDWOOD INCUBATOR. It is a bottom hatch unit, barn find. I am selling it as is, in un-working condition. I buy these to take apart, restore and rewire to convert into state of the art, Reptile Egg Incubators. They come out to be show pieces, they are...

Hello! First time hatching shipped eggs. Have hatched many of my own successfully. They were treated pretty rough, packed well, but really tossed around. 2 arrived broken and all the rest (24) either had fully detached, partly detached, or saddled air cells. I’m very excited to have 21 going...

I have 3 shipped silkie eggs and one shipped turkey egg. I let them rest for 36 hours, and they've been in the incubator since Wednesday... I didn't start turning them until Saturday and I have been turning them very gently in the upright position at a slight angle clockwise then counter...

Good morning, We have three chickens we recently acquired about 3 weeks ago. One is about 6-8 months old and two are about 4-5 months old. That’s what the lady said where I got them from. I’m wondering when they will start laying eggs? We feed them meal worms, oyster shells, and chicken...

First of all, I'd like to make clear that Im not trying to advertise my stream or anything. I actually need advice/help. Background: I have a small farm with 1 goat, 3 pigs, a few ducks, geese, and 10-20 chickens. This year I decided to buy an automatic incubator to hatch some chickens instead...

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01766Z75I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_YUDLFbDMJBC81?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 I used these faux eggs to Jumpstart my chickens laying eggs, at first I was skeptical then within 2 days I started getting real eggs. Now I'm yielding 7-10 eggs per day with just 10 chickens. I'd say...
