I know its tempting, but if its been pipped for less then 24 hours, don't help it. Unless its been its stayed the same for 24 hours or the cheeps are getting weaker or have stopped, don't help it. I've had a chick die because I helped it too soon. Be patient! Happy Hatching!

Hi! It shouldn't take long. Its probably just tired. I would let it rest. If it doesn't get up by tomorrow, dip its beak into some electrolyte water. Mix 1 cup water, 2 teaspoons of sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon of baking soda together. Edited to add: Was there any blood when you...

Out of the 15 eggs I have 3 have hatched and 7 have piped!:D

Your temperature was probably on the high side

I see veins in 15 of my eggs. 2 were not fertile.2 had blood rings.

I'm waiting until day 7

me too!:D I took a peek at one of the eggs today, it had veins!

The more the merrier!

I have 19 mixed breed eggs. Hoping to hatch out some mutts! In those nineteen I also have a cracked egg. How can I seal it up? I've used wax before but that egg got bacteria on it a day after.

Great! Good luck to everyone!

This is my 4th time. The last few times I failed

I set some eggs at 5 o clock today. Anyone want to join me?

What do you set your eggs on for lockdown for the most sucess? If you select miraculous tell us what you use. Enjoy!

When you make an incubator can you heat it with something else besides a light bulb or a water heater?

Last week we went to Trader Joe's since I've read a cuople of threads on them having fertilized eggs but we went there and there were only cage free eggs. So is it that only this one doesn't have any or does Trader Joe not sell them any more?
