Chickcozy incubator

I assume I’d see some movement if they were alive? I think all are dead

I should’ve done this earlier, two were fully developed, one I think couldn’t get to the air sac, its stomach was facing the air cell. The other one something broke through membrane but not the beak, maybe a foot?

Sorry for your losses. I’ve been there, and lost many chicks that I could have probably saved if I had intervened earlier. So now I am definitely an “early assister” (not too early, but at the first signs of trouble.) But hopefully you were able to get some practice on these chicks and the next time you’ll be ready to help if needed!

I think that’s exactly right, I did learn a lot tonight. With saddled air sacs I think earlier intervention is definitely needed.

The brown egg I think I definitely could’ve saved so that one hurts. The chicks were huddled around that one too, I knew something was alive in there.

I really appreciate you walking me through those steps.

My preorder that I placed way back in the fall actually was processed today so I’ll have more eggs arrive next week so I’ll definitely be prepared next time! Thanks again.
