    The 10th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!!

    Did you end up giving it vitamins? Or did it recover on it's own?

    Do you have a nutri-drench or chick vitamins? Either of those could help.

    The 10th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!!

    I wanted to try to hatch some of my turkeys eggs, but she either hasn't started laying any yet, or she is hiding them real good. She did have a dirty back today! So I'm taking that as a sign that the Tom is doing his job (it was muddy out today because of rain).

    The 10th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!!

    Set 27 eggs locked down 14 eggs. 3 hatched. I left the other 11 in the incubator. I,'m giving them until Tuesday night. I tried candling a few of them this evening but they are too dark to see in. so, I'm pretty sure 3 will be all I get from this hatch. It's better than nothing.

    The 10th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!!

    Just checked the incubator and now I have 2 chicks out and a third one about halfway zipped!! So far all 3 have been from my flock. 1 that is out plus the one that is almost out are from my Black Penedesenca hen and what ever the rooster is. I'm still hoping 1 or both of the eggs I got from...

    So far I just have the 1. The egg that pipped last night has not started to zip, so not sure if it died or if it is just taking a super long break. Starting to get discouraged.:hmm

    Woke up early this morning and checked the incubator. I had 1 newly hatched chick!! It wasn't even the one that had pipped last night.:idunno Still hoping that one will make more progress and that the rest will start pipping and hatching today. So far nothing from the 2 eggs that made it to...

    The 10th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!!

    I'm trying to maintain hope ( but it's hard!) Day 21 starts this evening around 8:30. So far no pips, no rocking, no chirping (other than the birds outside which I keep thinking are from the eggs when I first walk in the room, LOL). I know with the lower temps I'm having ( with the fan that...

    The 10th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!!

    Ugh! I got home from work today around 4:30 and checked on the incubator. The temperature was done to around 90 at wire level (where they eggs are lying). I also noticed that the fan is no longer working when the heat comes on!:he Not sure what to do since they went into lockdown last night...

    I guess time will tell. That wasn't very helpful was it! :oops: The only one that doesn't look right to me is the last picture.

    The 10th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!!

    It depends on what day and time you set them. I set my eggs on April 29th at 8:37PM so this evening around 9:00 PM I put them in lock down. They are due to hatch of Friday night!! I started with 27 eggs and locked down 14 eggs, 1 of which I think is clear. I do still have 2 of the eggs that I...

    The 10th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!!

    I candled the eggs in my incubator and pulled 6 of the 7 that I think are clears. I left the 4 that I think are blood rings in there plus the 7th one I think is clear. I had a day in the first week that I went down to check and my temps were higher than I wanted them to be. Wasn't sure if I...

    I candled my eggs this evening. I think I have 7 clears and 3 bloodrings but I left them in for now (Day 10). Had another 4 or so eggs that are too dark for me to see in. The rest seemed okay ( out of 27 eggs).
