That's my initial thought i hatch cochin bantams and other than the color they look identical. But when i google lensed it, it also brought up porcelain d'uccle and lavender ameraucana bantams but im still saying blue cochin bantam

Our local feed store advertised they had silkes in, and of course i needed to add a couple more silkies to my already existing flock of 60+ I have a wide assortment of birds ranging from bantys to large fowl. I already have a few silkies but wanted more, ya know, cz chicken math. 🙄 I wasn't...

Oh my goodness you are right! Like the one in the old 60s Christmas cartoons! I love it. You just officially named this little beast. Thank you. It's name is Yeti ❤️

Waking up this morning was like waking up on Christmas morning! Y'all except look what the incubator fairy brought me!! This is Dennis Rodman. (Or Denise if he's a she) I do not have any black skin silkies or anything black skinned for that matter other than my fibro olive eggers that are 4...

So far day 20 and we have 21 hatched. This is madness I wasn't expecting them to hatch so early. The others have all pipped all but a few so they have plenty of time. I have a mix of standard and bantams but y'all I swear these are the tiniest chicks I've ever had. For reference that bottle...

Day 19 gave us 10 in total. 😳 All bantys, 9 of which were blue eggs. I have a couple dozen that are starting to pip. The humidity has me nervous. The more that hatch the higher it goes but then the more they fluff, it plummets in. Literally an incubator roller coaster right now. I really need...

It's a Chinese incubator that goes by MANY names lol. Mine does not have the built in candler but here's a few like mine. I love that the lid is 100% see through but it does lose heat through the sides. But other than that it's been a great incubator. The egg turner is great, it has an...

I have one too like that I'm starting to worry about

We have baby #1 he's so TINY! 10 More pipping since this morning. It's only day 19! It hatched from a blue egg, so he's a bantam easter egger Y'all this one has a Clark Gable mustache! Lol the black on his beak almost has a porn stache vibe to it 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Holy crap batman! It's day 18... LOCKDOWN DAY. so I'm doing my final candle as I switch them over to the hatching incubator and I got to my 3rd egg out of 53... And YALL!!! It's internally pipped. 😳 So urgent mode kicks in and we switch ALL 53 over. Needless to say I didn't candle anymore...

Ok Day 13 candling and I'm one egg down. We now have 53 out of 55 eggs left. The remaining 53 look PERFECT & Healthy, But I have a strange egg that is not giving me good vibes and I'm worried I may lose it. I've never had or seen an egg like this. Maybe y'all can help me. I took this video...

So it's day 11 and after candling, all 54 are developing GREAT! Air cell growth is perfect and babies are bouncing around, even my marans. I hope they all make it to the finish line. I simply LOVE dry hatching (so far). So far I'm doing so much better than my last hatch.

Chicken math 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣🤣

Question, some of us hatch for ourselves, some hatch for family and friends and some hatch to sell. I do all 3. Lol but what happens when a buyer wants 25 chicks and you set, oh let's say 55🙄 and they back out leaving you with the possibility of having all those extra chicks. What do you do...

Hey y'all hope it's not too late to join the hatch along. I have 54 in the incubator and we are on day 9. I have standard and bantam eggs set a a mic of barnyard mixes lol. My roos are Bielefelder and ayem cemani my hens are buff Orpington, BCM, Barred rock, Welsummer and Wheaton maran. My...

Thank you so much! I just read through that exact post actually lol. I've been trying to find anything that is close to it. Her wing tips literally look like someone took a curling iron and curled them up and back. They are both like that. I never noticed it till yesterday my morning almost...

Ok hear me out, I've read so many times that only waterfowl get angel wings, but I would almost disagree. Any other explanation for this babies wings to curl up and out only on her primary wing feathers. And a large gap between her primary and secondary? The secondary lays flat. She or he is a...

I'm gonna take an educated guess as we also raise and hatch Cochin bantams and they look almost identical to yours which btw they are beautiful 😍 From what I can see and it's always hard to tell through photos but the pink marks female and blue marks male. Cochin male's usually always feather...

That's the kind of advice I appreciate, and sadly I agree. I was hoping for better but this is what I expected. I'll give him till day 25 and candle again. Fingers crossed and prayers said he pulls through. Thank you.

Thank you, yes this is a special hatch for sure a mixture of our bantams and standard breeds I'm so happy we had a good hatch rate. Next hatch I'm trying dry hatch. This humidity thing is ridiculous.
