Trying to troubleshoot terrible pekin bantam hatch

[Kbug125]

Thanks so much for your reply. This was a while ago now but that is great information for next time. My daughter absolutely loves the bantams and we will definitely be wanting to hatch more again so I'll follow your advice if we do them in the incubator and I will absolutely find a different breeder.

Thankfully, the three that did hatch have turned out to be a trio. Of course I can't breed them because I suspect inbreeding already but I'm hoping the two hens will be good broodies for me for other eggs.

You're very welcome! I'm glad the information was helpful, and it's great to hear that the three that hatched have turned out to be a trio. It’s a relief that they’re healthy, and I hope the hens will be good broodies for future hatches. Best of luck with your bantams, and I hope your next hatch goes much smoother!
