Doing my last hatches of the year.
First I have 3 silkie eggs, 3 store bought eggs from some local farmer, and 4 mixed breed bantam eggs. 10 eggs in total, due to hatch around 04.05 - 05.05. They're under my broody hen Okakley, so I'll be calling it Oakley's batch.
Second I have 6 silkie eggs...
I just a got an incubator and with the new additions to the flock and a new layer I ended up collecting 31 eggs.
(The incubator can hold up to 41 for future reference)
That being said it’s time to pick an egg!
Here’s how it’ll work:
- I will give the numbers that’s on each egg.
- I will...
I put 41 eggs in my incubator about two weeks ago. Pick an egg and name it.

My button/king quail eggs had arrived earlier today! This is my first time hatching out quails and i’m both nervous and excited. I will be using the rcom 10 pro without the auto humidity pump. The seller has some interesting mutations, can’t wait to see what they look like.
I ordered 12 and got...
Hi everyone!
This will be my first time hatching shipped eggs and first time relying on an incubator.
Our x12 BBS Orpington eggs arrived yesterday and have had a day to settle. Our x10 Golden Campine have just arrived today.
Everyone's been checked in, weighed and had an initial candle. I...
Hello all! This is my first ever incubation and hatching.
I am incubating 5 eggs: 3 Barred Rock, 2 Lemon Pyle Brahma.
So far on day 22 we have one pip from a barred rock and some chirps from the other eggs. I hope to update as frequently as I can with pictures! Here is the first pip of our...
Hello! I've been on BYC for at most 3-4 weeks, and I think it's time to start my very own Hatch-a-long! I've got a pretty dozen of eggs from my chickens. Here they are!
We just wrapped up a quail hatch a long and figured I'd share for those interested in following along. I used to love watching these things before I decided to jump into it. I've added them all to a playlist so you can see them in chronological order. I hope you enjoy.
22 eggs in a nuture right 360!
Mostly Bielefelder eggs, some RIR Biel mixes maybe.
Hatch day: Jan 2nd.
d'Uccle eggs going in next week!
Warming the bator up right now.

I feel like I'm addicted to chickens...!!!:love
Anyways, just this past Sunday I popped 72 eggs into the incubator!
I'm using a Brinsea Ovaeasy 100. This thing has been amazing and I'm almost always at a high hatch/success rate. The last round i did only had 2 eggs out of 54 that didn't...
I just now set 56 of my own quail eggs, plus 10 guinea eggs, and in a week I'll add 11 +/- LARGE breed chicken eggs to hatch-along with the guineas. I've also got 3 turkey eggs that go in lockdown Sunday for a planned CHRISTMAS hatch!!! :bun:jumpy:yesss:
:fl
Edited: 59 quailies & 12 guineas...
I'm looking to y'alls expertise to help me eliminate some of these eggs, & clean out the incubators so I don't have any explosions along the way.

Time For A Quail Hatch-A-Long!
1. Put your eggs in the incubator on Tuesday 10/29/19
2. If you have any other species (chickens,ducks,turkeys,etc.) then put them in the incubator to match up with Sunday 11/17/19 (the hatch day)
3. Have fun!!!:thumbsup
see the notes...
Hey all! So I can't believe no ones started this thread yet so I thought I would! I know the northern hemispheres heading into Autumn/fall/winter so things are getting quiter on the hatch front, but there's surely plenty of us southerners heading into spring to hatch!
I have a mixed breed incubation goin on, it's now day 22.5, almost 48hrs ago my 1st chic hatched & is practically dry. 6hrs ago I had another hatch & is still wet. I have 3 that have pipped and are showing small signs of starting the zip process. Can I remove the dry chic to the brooder now...
So yesterday at about dinner time i heard the egg chipring ever so slightly. I thought wow it's finally hatching! There is no external pip yet, but it sounds strong (It's been 14 hours since i first heard it). I dont now what to do so if anybody knows what to do, or if this is normal?
