Sally great hatch, waiting on serama //// eggs from sara and martha set 1/24 day 7 legbar, projects, marans, Lemon Cuckoo orphingtons, tolbunt polish, and some mix silkies, add hole bator of serama
NestingHillsSC 14 eggs in the hatcher yesterday2/4. I have another 18 I have to stagger in tomorrow morning. Wheaten Ameraucanas and BCMs. Probably Barred Rocks, Buff Brahmas, Heritage Reds and Sex links. LOL
J&TRanch 1/12/16 12 self blue Cochin bantams (shipped) day 3 (going to candle today to see how many are viable).... And 18 eggs arriving in the mail tomorrow @J&Tranch My shipped self blue bantam Cochins are doing good. I had to throw out a stinker and a seeper

So out of those 10 remaining, 7 are developing nicely
1f600.png
They're on day 7. I ended up receiving 16 shipped from GA, they looked good considering the single digit temps- only 3 saddles and none cracked. They're on day 3 today, will candle Wednesday maybe.
Saris My hatch is done 6 DIS 24 chicks outonly had to help one out of the shell when it got stuck zipping. Hooray!
TJ The original two surviving Serama eggs from the shipped mushy mess have bit the dust. From the newer shipped mess there are two still developing. They do have horrible saddle cells, so not a lot of hope for them either. My purple Guineas have just started laying and people are wanting chicks, so.....Pulling out the Mind Reading Bator this weekend!
Casportsponyday 34 for the Muscovy eggs and it looks like I have one external pip, two internals. One of the eggs have a huge "bruise" at the bottom of the shell, so I doubt it's still alive.
LocalYokel 13 Dominicker 5 Leghorn, may be White or Brown, mostly Whites in that coop.(Not the cheery oldish dude Whites) Hope the Doms and Leghorns are fertile.
7 RIR 2 out of 3 eggs under broody bator are alive/developing, 1 RIR 1 Leghorn, tossed the other.
4 out of 5 Leghorn in bator showing veins!
Some of the RIR look porous.
Hard to tell on the Dom eggs because my flashlight batteries are low, But I can see some developing.
Got a better cage for the broody!
Canadachickens Just set 18 Auracana Four silkie eggs - 1 Malpoed DIS, 3 late quitters. 0 hatch.
Venymae @venymae got an update? hope your ok! Salmon Favorelles and 11 shipped Cochin eggs on 1/15. On day 8, only 4 of the Favorelles looked good, but 8 of the Cochins did -- I left them all in the 'bator. I added 10 of my own silkies on 1/23.
gotro17 Shellee lavender Orpington shipped egg issue,Papa's Poultry. Jeff- you rocked it! Not one crack! Thank you!!! We have Bielefelders, Crested CL, BBs Marans and Mottled Lavender Orpingtons, along with some surprises from the rainbow pen! Can't wait!!!5 Marans eggs were cracked
1f44e.png
. However, all frizzles and lavender Orpingtons were intact. Vital Farms eggs I got at Target, along with some silkies from our new friend from down the road, @Jessimom ... We are setting tomorrow for a Feb. 6th hatch day. 29 eggs go into lockdown tomorrow!!! Start honing your master Jedi skills of distraction and calm. I don't have a styrofoam carton to put the eggs, needing to be upright, in...but I do have plastic 2/3
ChickaLong Hatched 28, 16 boys and 10 girl black sex links. 2 RIR X BR. 1 girl lost today. Added 20 RIR and 5 astrolops from a hatchery
Hawk12 have 7 blue/gold partridge brahma chicks in the incubator on day 15. Candled last night and things look pretty good. Air cells might be a little small. I lost 5 from this hatch due to a temp spike on day 3

I emailed the gal I bought them from to let her know my progress and she sent me a dozen more for the cost of shipping. That was very sweet of her to do knowing it wasn't her fault or even the PO but my faulty incubator. I'll be setting those eggs tomorrowDay 15, 7 eggs.
deserteggs22Update on my eggs in the incubator on day 7: all 7 of the eggs have moving babies in them!!! YAY! I will do another update on day 14. @deserteggs22 when is lockdown date?
Mirajane 10 white leghorn eggs, as I've said, my dad will only eat white eggs, so I bought some white eggs for him, so I can hatch them and raise them for him. They were shipped, 5 are good, 5 have detached air cells. Sat out for a full day before being put in incubator. Also put in 11 of our eggs from... @Mirajane when is lockdown date?
Peachickie 4/4 silkies hatched 2/4 mutts hatched Hearing some chirps this mornin, fingers crossed

macylee 1/19/second week of my first incubation attempt! I have 40 eggs, 3 Swedish Isbars and 5 Cream Legbars, 2 RIR/EE eggs, a few RIR/Golden Comet eggs and the rest are RIR/Black Sex Links. @macylee How is your bator and eggs doing?
ambe0487 2/1 I put the eggs in lockdown this morning because I will be busy getting ready for the snow storm that is suppose to hit over night here, day 18 actually starts at 3 p.m. 29 eggs, which comprise of 6 Isa brown/Legbar mix, 9 EE/ Bresse mix, and 14 Buff Orp.
Fire Ant Farm I set 16 Cream Legbar eggs yesterday afternoon. Looks like the shipped eggs (Alohas with some Naked Necks in the mix) will come next week, so the tandem hatches will be a week apart. (Brinsea Octagon), and the second one will be set up tonight (R-Com 20). Cream Legbars lock down on February 7. Aloha NNs lock down on February 16 (at least any that make it to lock down). Gently turning those three times a day now.
scottcaddy 2 different broodies on eggs at about day 10 1/20
slordaz barnyard mix, now RIR is matured too we are gonna play guess whose the daddy game as both roosters were on all of the hens, patiently trying to get spring here faster so can build the new coopsat 23 eggs at 2 am this morning 2/3 Lockdown is Wed Feb 10th (before bed) 6 are questionable 1 clear

shahtir101 Just set 8 more serama eggs 1/23 got an candle update, when is lockdown, how did the show go? 4 went into lockdown yesterday and 6 more go into lockdown on wednsday. The mixed bantams hat hatch are going to my neighbors. The show went well. All the birds beat their previous score but, the hens froze on the table. Still a good show and I hope that the one this weekend will go even better. I have been working with the hens more
S5apiotrowski incubator warehouse incubator. I have 3 welsummer eggs, 18 BCM, 2 easter eggers, and 5 mixed breed (BCM and Cochin cross, father is ??) @S5apiotrowski what is lockdow n date>?
MotorcycleChick MC should have been correcting Sally for weeks. She decided to wait until she locks down tomorrow to tell Sally that she only has 21 eggs now since two were clear, and one (that Sally confirmed) was an early quitter. She also should have pointed out her own coop expansion that wasn't a big deal, so she assumed it was left out because it didn't matter. Nor does the new incubator.
PHAGE 5 dozen eggs for a friend (tolbunt, mottled orps, Swedish flower hen, swedish black hen, BCM, Lav ameraucana, and a bunch of other newer breeds from GFF), 2 dozen gifted "eating eggs" from same friend (yea right like I am gona eat them) 1 dozen Costco "pasture raised" brown eggs 1dozen Vons "pasture raised" brown eggs 2 doz shipped eggs -jubilee orp and lemon cuckoo niederrheimers. Sadly have very low expectations here - one was broken and 10 have mobile air bubbles. They are in the bottom shelf but 99.99999% sure they have no chance of developing. The rest have saddle airsacs.
Chicken HAwk33 set 40 41 set.10 infertal.one blood ring and thirty alive and going strong eggs set 1/23 37 going strong
Jessimom 3 shipped SF's and 2 shipped Cochins looked questionable. Another SF - air cell was in the pointy end. I put all 6 in lock down in an egg carton, air cell up. But, 8 SFs and 7 Cochins look good and went in on their sides. I have 8 of my silkie eggs due to hatch 2/12 and 12 shipped Blue/Splash silkies and 2 shipped Buff Brahma eggs set to hatch 2/20. I have I have 14 more Buff Brahmas and 7 shipped Biefilder/Cream Legbar cross eggs to set on Friday. I had just 1 Salmon Favorelle hatch. Gotro17 had such a great hatch, I'm trading her a bunch of silkie eggs for one of her babies to be a buddy to mine!!! I've upped my Temps by 1/2 a degree to see if that helps. I do have 6 of my own silkies set to hatch on the 12th. That will be my test. The bator is full of others, set to hatch the 27th or so.

DHetzle 104 chicks total hatched last weekend. Put 101 eggs into lockdown for this weekend.
- changed out one heating element in the newly built cabinet incubator (trying a PTC heater for improved safety)
- ordered a new Dickey incubator for a hatcher
HeatherMarieRUpdate on Muscovy hatch: One has been internally pipped for 48+ hrs. I made a safety hole right above its bill yesterday afternoon. 3 are for sure DIS. One was trying to pip internally yesterday. I'll have to check on that one when I get back home. Two more are still hanging on with no internal pip. One egg from my Muscovy hen went into lockdown yesterday. Hopefully it will pip soon.

NTBugtraq 1/30 50 eggs into each tray this time, achieving the Brinsea Ova Easy 100 suggested limit. These eggs come from my own layers, who are first generation offspring of pure Black Copper Marans Roosters mated with a dual purpose bird resembling a Red Sexlink. These birds are inbreeds, as they are mating with their own fathers. The oldest layer is ~34 weeks old, the youngest only 24 weeks.
