I cracked an egg and found fly eggs swirled in the inside of the white of the egg. I'm assuming they are fly eggs, it's possible they are mosquito or something else. I'm wondering if the egg was slightly cracked before and something laid eggs into it then or if somehow, something, can lay eggs...

I noticed today that my black australorp won't raise its head that much. It keeps it tucked and digs or picks crazily at its breast. Almost like a seizure. It's been laying in the broader with its head tucked funny. Any thoughts on what it could be? Wish I could share a video!

Have brinsea 20 advanced with hygrometer. Woke up to day 21 and a chick like below. Humidity has stayed a constant 65% the membrane inside looks a little white and not wet. Does this look like normal zipping? Just a big hole? I'm worried the chick is stuck and not getting anywhere or can't move...

The people we got him from said he is a leghorn. We bred him with some RIRs, a blue andalusian and a black australorp. Waiting on the blue andalusian to hatch Sunday. Here are what the chick's look like. We'd like to hatch and sell more but I would like to know how to advertise what they are...

My hen recently started to mouth breathe. She hasn't laid any eggs except for the one clutch last year. She is one. Any thoughts? Plenty of water out, plenty of food, not sure what the issue is.

I see pics of people that candle with the pointy side up, so you can see the air cell at the bottom. I am always afraid that if I move the egg upside down like that, that something will happen to how the chick is connected to the veins/arteries are connected and the membrane stuff... I guess I'm...

Day 20,have three pips. One good one, but I don't see any movement and no chirping from all 15 eggs. They all seemed great when I candles on day 17. I have a brinsea octagon 20 advanced with humidity pump. Humidity is at 67% and temp at 99.5. The good pip happened sometime when I was at work...

We bought some chick's and two turkeys from the country store yesterday. I am acting like a new mom, so paranoid! I am trying to keep the temp to exactly 95 degrees but it keeps varying. We have them in a large plastic tote with the lid propped open and a large hole cut in the lid for the heat...
