Did she live? I just got my first ever 2 bantam cochins. The first one appeared just like your saying and died last night. Now tonight my other baby seems to be about to pass to. Have you learned anything that might keep my baby alive?

Theres one that doesnt have straddle leg or curled toes but it has a foot that kinda is slanted so he is walking in the side of his foot. Tried straightening it with tape and he took it off immediately

Lol I figured their wasn't a way to tag them. While they do seem healthy their are some that we are wanting to keep an eye on since they needed help coming out of the egg (membrane ended being extremely thick).

We had 15 babies hatch! Out of 20 eggs 15 hatched, 2 died in hatch, 1 was infertile, and 2 had blood rings. Many of them are browns but we did get 2 little golden Italians. I swear to god most of these are dry lol. So for my last question. How do y'all tag the babies so you can tell them apart...

So its ok if they haven't poked through the membrane? Its been 11 hours since the first one pipped and it hasnt broken through it so I'm worried it cant breathe! I was thinking at 12 hours of it not breaking through the membrane, I was thinking of wetting the membrane a tiny bit and if there are...

Its been 9 hours since the first pip and it hasn't zipped yet or broken the membrane? Is it ok? We also have 8 pips now

Mines doing the same thing. Today is day 17 and 5 eggs have cracked their shell a little bit. The one to first do it was this morning. It has slowly been making its crack a tiny bit bigger and I'm able to see some of it. Its A bright white membrane that it hasn't pierced yet. Mine has only been...

So we got a pip! At first I could barely tell it was one, just looked like a tiny dent or something. Came back an hour later and it was a bit of shell cracked, another hour and its this! The one above it with all the dogs also seems to be having the early stages of the dent on ones of its dark...

Ok so yesterday I started lockdown on my quail eggs. I do have some questions though. So ive been reading lots of different things and am getting confused. During lockdown do you lower your temp? I'm seeing some say raise it, some say keep it how it is and other say lower it. Also yesterday...

Oh thank god! We went bowling to spend time together as a family for the 4th and I thought I killed them by being gone to long! None have pipped yet (much to my impatience) and none of them are chirping inside the egg like I heard They are supposed to on day 16. I did play some quail chicks...

Ok so now I'm worried. Its day 16. They been wiggling since yesterday. Well all day today only 1 has wiggled. No changes in humidity or temperature today so what's happening? Are the others dead? What causes other eggs to just stop wiggling when they were the day before?
