Hi, I have a question about my geese, they keep sneezing and the other day it had some snot from its mouth and nose. I haven’t seen the snot in a few days but they are sneezing
Thank you 🙏
Update; I noticed two other chicks pip. One of them is on the wrong end again!! And today is only day 18 😔 I must have had the temp too high. Is this concerning?
The incubator was between 99-101 for the first 14 days, now it’s normally around 98-99. How often should I wet the membrane? I looked closer and there is a small slit where the chicks beak is.
Hi guys! Today is day 18, I’m going to do lock down by the end of the day.
Yesterday morning I found a crack in one of my eggs, it didn’t look like it got cracked from the outside, I was super confused cause it was only the beginning of day 17 and on the wrong end!
I assumed it must just be...
Wow that sounds like a crazy hatch. Thank you ! I was expecting all weren’t going to make it, this is my first time. I have two chicks now, I’m glad I have at least afew. I’ll try to help a little quicker if I KNOW for sure that it needs help next time.
Yeah, he is very strong! Another chick hatched lastnight, it seems pretty quiet I’m hoping it’ll get stronger though. Teddy seems way more content to be in his brooder with another chick. Tho he kept pecking at its face so I had to put a divider in between them.
Yes! So the three that were supposed to hatch, I only got one chick. One hatched and is very strong and healthy, the other was trying to hatch for a day but never even broke the shell, I wasn’t sure what to do I didn’t want to rush it, so after the 20 hour mark I broke a little for it. But by...
I guess I was too late, I made the safety hole when the chick had gone quiet and still no movement this morning, I broke open the egg very slowly this evening and the chick looked like it had been dead for awhile.
Hi guys! Really don’t know what I should do! I have three chicks, one of them has been hatched for over a day now, very healthy little baby. Another egg has been chirping and pecking for 24hrs but has not even broke the shell. Seems like the poor chicken is pecking a lot! I’m worried that it’s...
Since they were placed at night I’m assuming my counting was a teeny bit off. One started cracking out this morning, so I’m hopeful the others will follow along soon.
Do you mean like break a little hole in the air sack at the end?? I’ve never heard of that. Do you think they’re stuck or something? It’s day 23 and lastnight i was sure I heard pecking but no pipping.
