Three of my silkie babies....(not a two headed silkie )

My little silkies are already scratching and eating and drinking! Amazing how they can fend for themselves so early (with heat of course).

Luck wished

Ha! I'm on facebook too much. I was looking for the "like" button!

No problem. I've helped before on previous hatches and the chicks made it. I find if there is still blood in the veins I wait till its become pale. I work the membrane over the chicks body and leave what I can attached to the chick. This seems to work for me. But I only do it when I think the...

Well, i couldnt wait. I helped that baby out. Left its umbilical stuff attached, figured it would dry up and fall off. Its resting in the incubator, seems fine so far.

YAY! Thats great! Congrats!

Thank you! I think I'll wait till late this afternoon, if he's still not out I'll help. If he's going to die anyway I might as well tell myself I tried to save him. :)

I have an egg thats been piped for 24 hours with no further zip, I still hear faint peeps, at what point should I help it? ETA: I opened the bator and put a hot wet washcloth in, just in case my humidity was too low from taking out the chicks that hatched yesterday. We'll see if that works.

I am hatching in egg cartons this round too. I cut a hole in the bottom of the egg cups so they will have good air circulation. I've had these eggs in the carton the whole time, just propped up on end then the other to "turn" them. I've had 4 hatch so far, the dont seem to have any trouble...

I have 14 eggs in the incubator, one I think died but I left it in. I see three more pips so that is good :) I'll post a pic when they are all dried. I have silkies and americaunas. The silkies are hatching right now, the americaunas have 3 more days till they should hatch.

I have a chick! A tiny one! She's happily drying off in the incubator without a peep. YAY something hatched!

I hear a peep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm on day 20 and nothing is happening! I am so frustrated, I candled before lockdown and they seemed fine.

I'm coming in late, just found this thread. I am currently on lockdown and going insane waiting for something to happen! Hopefully I'll wake up tomorrow to some pips.
