I have birds with lots of fluff. If they don't get a Bermuda trim around the vent area I get nothing fertile. After I trim them, I get all fertile. He might be doing his job, but to much poofy to deal with.

I really miss my 80% to 100% hatches, but man does it feel good to join a big hatch and get more them from 1 to 3 out of over 200 eggs. Maybe it was good I didn't set so many. I'm still watching a couple. I had to go out and I need to get myself moving again soon to move chicks around. I was...

Quote: YEayyyyy-- more chicklets!! The AMs had a good hatch rate! They really did. I'm setting more in the morning. Haven't been to bed yet. I cleared out all the dud eggs and put a brooder together with shipping boxes. It's after 4:30 am and I'm just going to bed. Well, the couch. It's...

My hatch is still going on. Took containers out to count chicks and candle eggs and after I got through 3 containers, some eggs that are open and in egg cartons started hatching. I had to close everything back up. I do have containers that have finished. 5 Black Mottled Japs set 5 and all...

To many posts and taking my daughter and the newest grand baby to his first appointment today. Woke up to find a dead chick in one of the AM containers. I think it pulled so hard it pulled it's insides out. Man I hate when that happens and I'm not around to try and help. Ummm I I think I...

65 bucks a chick. That's some nice stock. Maybe you'll have a pair and some $130 a dozen eggs of your own. I like the way you think. And I've had some very expensive eggs not hatch, so I' get ya on those other hatches. Latest I've ever had eggs hatch was day 28, YUP! a week late. Don't know...

Arielle they might start spotting over a few days.

No spots at all I'd say white. So far one more out. Another Chocolate/Black bantam AM, so 2 and the 2 Black Mottled Japs. So the bantams are starting first. I see more pips and hoping I didn't mess them up to hatch. Nothing from any of the LF containers yet. I have a some Silkied AMs in...

Over 1450 in posts again before I could get in here. That seems to be the number lately. My floor is full of candy, toys and baskets. OMG!!! Sooooo, I did see that some had some early hatches. Not me! Looks like yesterday was a great hatch day. Not for me! I woke up to the Sportsman down...

Thanks!!! He's a keeper. I love the name too, but I stopped at 6 and didn't give the name to either one of my boys, so was happy when I found out she was going to use it.

Almost 1500 posts. uuuummmmmmm I'm not even going to try. I had to lock down late. Hope I didn't screw up, but there was a good reason. To tired to type out what made it or looked like it made it, or was to hard to see if it made it. We had a hatch on Sunday. His name is Dominick. I have...

Just candled. Pulled 26. Some blood rings, some quiters and some that weren't fertile. Most of the infertile ones were from the mixed flock and all pullets and cockerels that are young, so maybe later with some of those. Sooooo out of the following breeds I pulled these Mixed started...

First hatch this year I had a lot of duds and some that quit, but got one FBCM and one OE to hatch. My second hatch should have happened Friday. NUTTIN! The Easter hatch is the next one, but I'm not even getting quail to hatch and that's weird. I think I'm going to set eggs twice a week and...

Just marking my spot. Almost 1700 posts since I was last on! OMG!!!!

I think the exact same thing Amazing the things we can use when we want to hatch. LOL Good luck!! I've mixed those and just got oddly patterned birds no matter the sex. They were pretty though. I planted flowers earlier today, but it started pouring before I checked boxes. Not slipping...
