Yeah, sad to say, but mine just make the fall and meet up on the floor.

Try putting it in front of a fan for a while. If that doesn't work, then what is your ambient humidity? (humidity outside the incubator)

It was definitely a humidity issue. I have found that if my humidity is WAY off, then the chicks tend to become "weak". Even if I raise it to an acceptable level, the chicks won't hatch. If you force hatch a chick that has a dry membrane, I find that the survival rate is way too low to even...

If they never internally pipped, it does sound like drowning caused by too high humidity. But I can't be sure... It sounds like your humidity was fine throughout incubation... So I have no idea...

I've picked up a hen that was walking in the run and 3 eggs fell out. One she laid, and two she was carrying under her wings... But that still doesn't explain the daily occurrence.

Meh. Sometimes... 10.... Other times, 80. I've had batches that all I had to do was feed and water them. Other batches, I've had to treat curled toes and spraddle legs. Along with prolapse and everything in between... It just depends.

Are you sure they aren't laying? Are their cloaca larger than your index and middle finger? If so, they are laying, or are about to start.

Incubate at 99.5 degrees. On the 18th day, stop turning and add water to the incubator base. (buy a hygrometer for accuracy) Store eggs at room temp in a dark area. Turn 1-2 times daily while storing Just scoop up the eggs and bring them inside! Lol. You can store them for up to 7 days...

Most people are completely clueless, and in an economical collapse or a market collapse, A LOT of people would die. I'm 20. I taught my stepfather, biological father, and countless other people how to process a chicken. They didn't know. It's so sad, because we as citizens, have become...

Aw. I'm sorry to hear this. When buying online, it's always a gamble, unless you've had experience or personally know someone who has...

Mr. Nappy : I love the idea of raising rabbits to eat. I understand the meat is very tasty, and extremely lean. Also, the fact that they procreate so easily is intriguing. My only problem is, they are too darn cute for me to kill. I wish my wife could do it, but she says no lol. The only...

Meh. I don't think one day would hurt anything. Just be sure to turn right before you leave and AS SOON as you get back

Quote: My thoughts exactly.

Do you think your animals feel protected when the LGD is near them? Do you see them relax and wander in places that they normally wouldn't? etc...

Goodluck! I bet the little chick will be beautiful!!

Usually to ensure quality hatches, you want to start no later than 7 days after being laid. Store them pointy end down and turn them twice a day! Turn by putting a book about an inch thick under the side of the egg carton, or I just plug in my turner and add them to it as I collect them. Lol.

Yeah... They should have heat for another week or two... But I am always overly careful... SO...

Quote: This is good advice.. The important part is WARM water. The cold water won't make a difference until the water heats up, which can take a long time.

Just as a suggestion... WITHOUT reading these ten pages... Lol. Have you tried switching the dog to an all raw meat diet? MOST, not all, illnesses in dogs and cats are curable by raw diets.
