What a gorgeous little crew!Been very busy lately. Moved houses, and my girls are really loving the new place. I've also started keeping quail which has been a bit of a learning curve, and I've had a few hiccups but I'm really loving them.View attachment 3818093View attachment 3818095
It had been two days since I hear him chirping and no sign of external pipSafety holes are a last ditch effort with a hatch. From what I have seen, Many do this way to early. With chicken eggs, that would be a day or two after the last one hatched to check the eggs that are left.
I like to let them hatch on their own as much as possible. Assisting in the hatch, more times than not, leads to an unhealthy chick that you have to cull.
I would expect you to see pips soon in the eggs. Then they can take a long break. You should look it up, but from what I remember, it can be a day or two (even more) after the pip.
Ohhh I really hope yours goes well !! I love geeseGood luck! I hope you have a good hatch.
I am really hoping mine hatch well because my geese got wiped out in that dog attack I posted about a few posts back. And these eggs are from a woman who bought two pairs from me a couple years ago, so they're from my line.
Hello, its been a long while. I am finishing up my masters degree so it has been a busy time for me. I now have 19 chickens and a potbelly pig. Hope all of you are doing well!We have such a vibrant community here at BYC... tons of active friendly members. Of course, life gets busy, so I was thinking it would be fun to start a thread welcoming some of our peeps we haven't heard from in a while.
If that's you, come say hello and let us know what you've been up to.

Thanks for the message! I have been busy. I'm renovating the chicken coop, and I've had a bunch of friends helping me do it. And one of them became my boyfriend. At the moment, I'm watching a snake digest an egg and I'm fascinated.We have such a vibrant community here at BYC... tons of active friendly members.
