    Playing music for incubating eggs

    When my first chick was having trouble hatching I played chick chirping sounds to encourage her and It helped a lot! Definitely recommend playing music or chicks chirping 👍

    Pipped baby chick had bubble around next to it’s beak

    Hi there, I recently hatched my first eggs. One of the eggs had pipped and then when I went to check in it again, I saw that it had died and a yellow clear bubble was next to its beak, preventing it from moving or zipping. I had had problems controlling the humidity and think that it may have...

    EMERGENCY: DYING CHICK. Please help! I don’t know what to do!

    I actually only helped when I saw that it had pipped approximately twelve hours ago and had not made progress. It also passed away just now so i believe that I was correct and that it wasn’t just resting.

    I believe it did absorb all of the yolk sac. It pipped normally but I helped it to zip part of the eggshell. Then it did the rest of the rest of the hatching on its own. I’m just worried because it looks like it’s gasping for air, it keep opening and closing it’s mouth and breathing more heavily...

    Hi there, I had a chick hatch in my incubator overnight and put him in the brooder this morning. He does nothing but sleep and doesn’t even walk around. When I picked him up several times he only opened his eyes sometimes and the other times he was just limp with his eyes closed. It’s breathing...

    sure. I’ve hurriedly separated them so they would stop pecking the chick.

    Chick seemed to have died during hatching

    It was actually pipped but then I peeled away some of the eggshell because it had been in the egg for about 12 hrs. I’m not sure if I should let them sit overnight or...I can hear them chirping and they’re wiggling a little. I really don’t know if I should peel away more or not.

    Chick seemed to have died during hatching

    I found another egg that had pipped and died. I have two more eggs that pipped and then stayed about the same for approx. 12 hours. I decided to peel some of the eggshel away to help them zip but they’re not making much progress. One of the eggs started bleeding a little so I stopped the blood...
