    Ah man, the second sebright did not make it. ;^; I got it out within a second with no humidity drop because it was close. The bottom wasn't a hole so I was thinking maybe it'll still hatch. Candled, no movement for 2 minutes. So I did an eggtopsy, and it did indeed pass away. It had very extreme...

    There's been no sticking yet, save the one that was because of the other's stuff drying around the shell when the other one hatched. :( Humidity has reliably been 65-70 though during hatching periods, sometimes up to 75 when some are actively hatching!

    Well, now that doesn't make sense. I was pretty sure the egg said "RP" but it must've been the barred rock egg that just hatched. :gig Because that is not a red phoenix baby! Looks fairly dark with a white underbelly and a white spot on the head, from what I can see through the goop. 🤭 I will...

    Oop, I'm PRETTY sure one chick pipped on the wrong end. 🤔 It's the other Gold Sebright. I'm not sure WHEN it pipped, but I think within the last 6 hours for sure. The pip is at the VERY tip of the pointy end. I especially don't want to open the incubator again so soon with one actively zipping...

    WHO HAS ACTIVELY HATCHED FROM THE GREEN EGGS? Maple and Archipelago are in the hatching process as we speak! I think this list is right. 🤭 Egg 2 (Red Jungle Fowl Bantam): Beryl (Claimed by BlindLemonChicken) Egg 3 (Red Jungle Fowl Bantam): Tundra (Claimed by TwoCrows) Egg 5 (Red Jungle Fowl...

    So we're still at 15/24 hatched (on day 20! Whaaaaat!), but the Golden Sebright and another Brown Leghorn are working their ways out slowly. The Sebright's still on the first big pip but I can see its beak. 🥰 I think the Leghorn's taking a break, but I'm keeping an eye out as it looks like it'd...

    I’m SO happy. I was so worried we would end up with only a few, but this has given me bigger hope for hatching. 🥰 I just gotta figure out the best way to get the dry babies out tonight and to check on the un-pipped eggs. 😂 It is CHAOS in there. Haha! And to think in only 3 days another batch...

    Nature-Themed Hatch-Along

    I’m thinking once everyone is dried up, and if no one is zipping, I’m going to do a quick grab-up of everyone to get them into the brooder and check on the others. That’ll likely be tonight if all goes well. 🥰 That way I can do a quick looksee at the eggs. There’s so many babies now though, I’m...

    15/24! And a pip I can see on one of the brahma eggs. 🤞 Ahhh, I can’t believe it!

    13/24 are officially out so far, and we're still on day 20! I think we had two more brown leghorns pop out while I was away from the room. :wee I think one MAY have been a Red Phoenix maaaybe? The egg shells are taking up so much space, I feel bad for leaving everything in there but I don't...

    The Moonshiner's Leghorns

    Gracious, a lot of leghorns hatching! The incubator is chaos. :gig I need to TRY to count what's hatched, as everything was labeled, but every single chick so far is brown chipmunk so I can't tell who's what too easy as some of the leghorns' eggs were smaller and they were a bit on the smaller...

    :gigNow I know what to call Tomato when it's in trouble! Total full name energy there. Haha! Very rough start indeed, but gosh I'm so relieved. I'd been waiting and waiting and waiting to intervene because I didn't want to intervene too early, but I'm so happy he's out.

    Back right corner there now! He’s wiggling and wobbling around eagerly. He seems so very happy to be out! 🥰 What a sweetie. I’m just hoping I didn’t cause harm to the other eggs in the process, but I’ll be ready to assist if I need to. There was no blood thankfully, he was soooo ready to be out...

    Tomato had an emergency. I was noticing its chirping went from lively to panicked then lethargic in a quick period, and had been half-way zipped since this morning. The membrane seemed a little dry so I pulled it out to wet it. And then noticed another chick's membrane had glued a good portion...
