    The 8th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!

    I had a terrible hatch. I forgot that I replaced the circuit board on my incubator last year and hadn't calibrated it yet, so the only chicks that hatched healthy were the ones in the tiny incubator, so 7 Ayam Cemani, and 1 modern game bantam the only eggs to hatch from the big incubator was a...

    Yes! Smallest is a button quail, next is a coturnix quail, then a silkie, and a Bielfielder :) My sister took the picture and keeps telling me to make sure people know it's her photo, but I claimed at least half of it for myself because they are my eggs haha.

    March 2017! Hatch with us!

    Well I usually mark which eggs came from which sellers anyways so this time instead of a seller name I just put the egg's name instead. I usually either build little divider baskets, for different sellers and that has worked in the past. I also livestream fun hatches so I can see who is hatching...

I was being really careful to go slowly, they were literally almost out when chick a stopped moving, then about 30 minutes later chick b stopped as well. not sure what happened they looked like...

    Ayam Cemani double yolker! any tips?

    egg started pipping, so I took some initiative and made a hole so I could see what was going on. (I've helped lots of chick hatch successfully so I *hopefully* am doing this right) both chicks are moving. chick on top ("chick A" I guess) is very visible, but lots of yolk still needs to be...
