    Silkie color?

    I apologize for the quality of pics but you should be able to see the black on the top of their heads and the comparison between paint and these little ones.

    Silkie color?

    Edited to add pics. I probably need to take a picture but I just hatched some silkie chicks and I ended up with 3 that I thought were buff but now that they are dry, they are very light, almost as light as the white chicks but with a buff tint. The odd thing is they have 1 or 2 black spots on...

    Where to buy GQF Hygrometer?

    Ok thank you. I have been reading a lot and decided on the spot check for the thermometer so I hope I only need the hygrometer.

    Thank you, so which is preferred? Analog or digital?

    Where to buy GQF Hygrometer?

    That one says for circulated incubators only, mine is a styrofoam still air.

    Where to buy GQF Hygrometer?

    Is that the one everyone uses? I thought it was the digital one. If that is it, I feel stupid.

    Where to buy GQF Hygrometer?

    I've looked on the internet including Amazon and eBay and can only find one person on eBay that sells them and his history is not great and I would like to have one by next weekend if possible. Does anyone know where else I can get one or one that is just as good?

    Mine was determined to keep her eggs and since my incubator was full I decided to let them try.

    I will remember that next time AmyLynn. They took a long time to fluff, especially since the humidity shot way up while hatching. Out of curiosity, do any of you let your hens hatch eggs? I have a white silkie and a Salmon Faverolle sitting on silkie eggs because my incubator was full...

    I am also a first time mom, congrats! It took mine 6-12 hours to fluff up nicely, I am assuming because of all of the humidity.

    I agree, lockdown is torture. I never saw wobbling and was freaked out but mine have done great and I think it went pretty well considering I set them for almost 11 days but I followed all of the directions I found and it worked. Proud mommy here. Now I have to go work on Egbert, he still has...

    Mine are silkies too and since this is my first time I can only tell what mine did. I had no movement at all, no wobbles or anything during lockdown until they pipped externally. I thought for sure all of mine were lost because I read about wobbling but I took pics and there was nothing...
