    I'm half way through day 23 and decided to intervene. One was pipped but not bothering for 18 hrs. So my boyfriend and I made the bathroom into a sweaty sticky hot sauna. Helped one out completely. No veins. Rubbery membrane. I broke into the airsack on the rest. 1 had his beak in the sack...

    Day 22 no hatch apart from one??

    Thanks for a glimpse of hope. Just it's day 22 :-S Temps seemed spot on continuously. Humidity been a problem. Instructions said to redsmp with warm water every 8 hrs if needed. Hope that hasn't dehydrated any as it drops quickly before building up again.

    Day 22 no hatch apart from one??

    Had to take the lid off to moisten sponge as humidity very low. This was at the end of day 21. One chick hatched 10 hours ago, but not managed to stand up yet. One pipped 8 hrs ago, nothing since. Other ten nothing. My chick has rolled all the eggs around. When should I intervene with the...

    Thanks.... I'm not going ahead with anything. Was pondering for next year. Which is why I want to pick brains now. If it's not do able then I won't. Don't want to risk either species being unhappy, as that defeats the whole point of doing it. Will make a bit of interesting research though.

    It's a lovely thing hatching them out in your hand, just watch for blood. My incubator not keeping the humidity, have to keep topping it up. All twelve were active, on day 19 now and getting paranoid. Want to see movement.

    Hmmm.... Thanks for your opinions. My previous bantams ignored wild lil birds. The bigger ones chased them away from their food. Don't really want big flying birds as I don't think there's enough room. Food for thought.... Thanks again.

    Thank you. My local shop sell poultry vinegar. Think I'll worm them around the 16 week Mark then. Now just crossed fingers they hatch. Hate the waiting game.

    Hi. I have a 21ft by 13ft pen for my chickens in the garden. It's just over 6ft high. Does anyone know if there are birds suitable to live with them? Thought having nest boxes up high, would be nice to have birds flying around while my chickens rummage around the bottom. Maybe not do able...
