I had a broody sitting on 8 eggs. Wednesday, I saw a crack in one of the shells and the egg was moving all over. When I got home from work, expecting a chick, I saw nothing!!!! No chick, no shell, nothing! I’m not sure, but I believe it’s one of my buff’s. Anyway, yesterday, I came home and mama...

Hi!
I'm a schoolteacher who is now facilitating homeschool. I've hatched eggs many times in Maryland. Now I am in search of a supplier in the los angeles (Venice Beach or surrounding) area. I'd like between 6 - 12 eggs, and it would be great if we could return them afterwards. Does anyone know...

Hi All,
I have a Janoel 12, which has an automatic turner. However, I still freak out about leaving the incubator without checking the temperature and making sure the eggs have actually turned enough! What should I do if I must go away this weekend? I am nearly positive you should never...
Hey in my last post I said one of my eggs was more developed and he really was. He’s hatching about a week before the rest. He popped open a hole, but I noticed he popped through a blood vessel and there was a little blood I put a moist paper towel around him, because I’m worried about him. Part...

We had our eggs incubating for about 3 days when last night a bunch of transformers in the neighborhood blew up and caught fire, and our incubator was shut off from midnight to 8 in the morning. Is it possible that they still could hatch? Or should i restart with new eggs?
So I am incubating chicks now and I there are some ants in the incubator because we accidentally dropped a rotten egg in it. I was going to clean out the ants but one of the eggs started peeping. There is a hole so you can see the beak and it's wet fuzz. Some ants go near the crack but then walk...

Hi friends,
I’m on my second incubation attempt ever. First time using my improved diy incubator after learning a lot from my not great first incubation attempt.
I’ve got 48 coturnix eggs that I picked up from a neighbor that says they typically get a 75% hatch rate.
It’s day 10 and I candled...
I had a duckling hatch in my Hovabator last night, so far it is the only one.
It is making noise, but that seems to be the only normal behavior (but I'm only used to chicks!)
It does not move around very much, and it sorts of looks like it's shivering at time. Other times it looks like its...
Hi,
My kindergarten class incubated eggs and I had one duck pip and not make much progress after 3 days. It seemed distressed so I helped it. It had eaten most of the yolk sac and the cord was attached. I put it back in the incubator with shell. Yesterday it looked better. Today it’s even...
