She had been saving them for a week which I have read is perfectly fine. I candled the eggs at day 8 and saw that 5/6 eggs were developing which was great! Soon...

We decided to build the chicks a home of their own when we failed to introduce a couple of keets we purchased to the mama chicken in the hopes she’d adopt them. The adoption...

    Dire Emergency with last 2 eggs in incubator

    I have just done the most stupid thing. We have successfully hatched bantams well over a week ago and had two other eggs in the incubator which were added 3 days in to replace the non fertile eggs I removed at day 5. When they were overdue I candled for internal pip and there was nothing, nor...
