    Problem foot

    I hatched out 3 ducks yesterday. The whole process didn't go so well but in the end ended up with 3 hatched. The first one hatched and was perfectly fine.

    IS this normal?

    They will be fine for up to 3 days in the incubator. But after 3 days you will want to make sure they get water as soon as you take them out. Then give them feed. They don't always hatch on hatch day, some are sooner some are up to a couple days later. All this from what I have read and learned...

    Doing my first hatch soon. Please help!

    Yes take them out on day 18 and shut the incubator and don't open the incubator or your humidity will jump all over. Leave them in until they are dry as they can stay in for 3 days while they wait for the others to hatch. I did open mine before all were hatched because it was getting to crowded.

    Well I opened the rest

    The humidity was actually low at first so I kept trying to get it up and I think my hygrometer might of been off so when I was trying to raise it it probably didn't need to be. So it was probably the humidity.

    Well I opened the rest

    I had eggs that I just knew weren't going to hatch. There was 8 that I candled and didn't see any movement so I took them outside to gently open them to see if I could see anything. They were all fully formed, 1 looked small but it was formed, 1's beak was totally crossed way bad. Probably a...

    Sticky, dried chick

    MissPrissy when you say humidity issues does that mean too high or too low or just a mixture? All mine that hatched first were fluffy but the last 2 were stiff feathers, 1 was really bad and that was the last one.

    Does anyone know anything about Guineas????

    LOL, I thought I had a weird guinea. I have 20 and 1 of them NEVER shuts up. She is always squawking. I didn't put them with my baby chicks til my guineas and chicks were 4-5 weeks old. They had seperate brooders but went into the coop at the same time. They all get along fine. Guineas seem to...

    Chicks really do come out of those eggs

    I was looking for pipping yesterday all day which was only day 19. I didn't see anything. With all my temp problems I was wondering if it was a doomed hatch. I was getting ready this morning and kept hearing chirping so I went to the bator and could hear the chirping. I thought oh wow there is a...
