I am hatching 12 chicken eggs but both from a different batch. The second batch went in exactly 10 days after the first one. Now I am at a stage where I do not know what to do during lockdown with the first batch which starts this Thursday 🙈. I am using Triwind automatic incubator. How do I...

“Maya” the one that made it… (my 6yr old named her)

I had 3 shrink wrapped eggs and one embryo didn’t develop. It was my first hatch and quiet a traumatic experience as the last egg bled to death 😞 My mistakes costed them their lives

Just one

My first ever batch of 6 eggs… 1 hatched on early hours of Monday morning and the rest 5 are still in incubator. We are now on day 22 and this is what I see… I know 1 egg isn’t going to hatch as the embryo stopped growing. But I’m confused and concerned as to why the other 4 haven’t hatched or...

Can you actually take them out of the incubator?

One hatch this morning

Air pocket still intact

I don’t have any other pets yet… just 2 rather naughty and hyper kids (6yrs & 3yrs) but they have been good so far!

This is my first time ever to hatch chicken eggs. I am on day 20 with 99.8’ and 71% humidity since lockdown. I haven’t had any chirps or pips yet… Have I done something wrong? Please help

I’ll give it a try thank you ☺️

Humidity still not going beyond 57% What can I do to increase humidity in lockdown?

Oh please excuse my lack of knowledge here but how do I do that? 🙈
