hello all,
So I’ve had several good hatches and my most recent resulted in 15 chicks out of 21 eggs. Some eggs I thought were further along then they were hatched late almost two weeks ago. My problem is there is one last egg that’s been in the incubator for at least 25 days, probably closer to...
Hi all,
Day 28 for my duck eggs was yesterday, but I had one duckling hatch on Tuesday night. Since there had been absolutely no action from the other eggs (no pipping, no rocking and rolling, no noise--I'm used to chicken eggs, maybe ducks are different?), I thought the other 7 I have were not...
Alrighty! I've got 5 chicks that have hatched out of my incubator (they're in the brooder now), but I'm still waiting on 5 eggs. It's day 23.
My incubator is in my classroom, so I'll be gone over the weekend. Should I leave the eggs in the bator or should I take them out? I still have some duck...
So I hatched my first flock. Today would be day 27 but I turned off the incubator yesterday morning. Then one more egg hatched today. My house is at 68 degrees. My roommate told me when I came home in the evening, so we have no idea at what time it hatched. I turned the incubator back on...
hello all. I feel silly as over the duration of my incubation, I’ve been looking up other peoples’ experiences to verify I’m doing what I should be doing or seeing what I should see along the way. I’ve stumbled upon other posts just like the one I’m posting but I can’t help myself! I think it’s...
Hey guys!
I'm really stressing over here! This is my second attempt at egg hatching.
First go around I made a home made incubator for some quail eggs. Needless to say the were way too hot and we had boiled quail eggs by the end of day 2. D'OH!
I decided to wait on the quail because during the...
When I candled my eggs before lockdown they looked somewhat smaller than i expected them to be. Now it's day 21 and not a bit of action. I kinda figured it would be delayed cuz of the rollercoaster these buggers have been through (temperature problems throughout, power outage, etc. See...
This is my first time hatching quail eggs. It's day 18 and there is no sign of piping. My temperature is around 95° Fahrenheit (I can't seem to raise it up higher) and my humitidy is around 40% which I know is really low but I can't seem to raise it at all!! I've tried wet towels, adding more...
So long story short I have 1 egg in an incubator (cross AND half bred, parents are Indian runner cross possibly Muscovy? Not sure) and the development of everything was perfect minus the air sac that was slightly too small but not small enough to cause major health issues.
The duckling was due...
