    Hope I'm doing this right ......with shipped eggs.

    I now have 5 little chicks that have hatched. The other 7 eggs have done nothing, not even pipped. But I'm only on day 21 so lets keep our fingers crossed. And yes I helped the one chick hatch, there was no progress when I got home from work yesterday. So I got my spray bottle of hot water...

    Hope I'm doing this right ......with shipped eggs.

    Feeling really good ... Just candled the shipped cochin bantam eggs, they are on day 10. Of the 15 eggs that I started out with, I have 12 very active little wiggles developing. I still have them upright in the egg carton, and I think that I will leave them there thru hatching. Of the 3 eggs...

    Hope I'm doing this right ......with shipped eggs.

    Thanks for the replies... Now I think I'm more worried about the mille fleur eggs at the moment. I know they are only on day 3, but I candled some of them this afternoon and of 10 eggs that were candled only 1 showed any red veining. I think this whole hatch with both of the incubators will be...

    Centrarchid, thanks for responding. She has started back laying, 3 eggs so far. I wormed them about 6 weeks ago with safeguard. Do you think I should worm her again ?

    2 year old hen not acting right.

    mrchicks that's just what is happening. She now stays off to herself because the other chickens are so mean to her. When she was broody, she was in the nest box with all the others. It's not like she went away and then came back, she's been there the whole time. I have her in my fenced in...

    Why can't I hatch eggs?!

    I always turn my eggs at least 3 times each day. I wonder if only turning them 2 times a day is effecting the hatch ?

    2 1/2 week old chick picking on the 3 1/2 old chicks

    I have a 2 1/2 half week old silver laced Wyandotte chick, I think it's a rooster. He is in the Brooder with 3 1/2 week olds. He is very aggressive to the other chicks. If any other chicks get near him he runs to them and starts pecking at them very aggressively. I have never had this happen...
