    Today is day 23 for my hen and her clutch of 26 eggs (was 27 but one rolled out two days ago and I brought it inside and candled to see a live moving embryo so I put it in the incubator).

    Turkey pout hatched a day early..with problems, help!

    Hi last night was day 26 heard peeps, then a pip and hatched out at 3am this morning. He is dry, but he is not walking, or standing. His toes seem a little bit curled. He also has a unclosed navel with a teeny tiny bit of a yolk showing like the size of a O on your keyboard. I have him warm, but...

    Poult hatched 5 hours ago.

    I also want to add that he has a tiny bit of yolk that is not absorbed maybe the size of the eraser on the end of a pencil, perhaps a bit smaller. I have other eggs in the incubator so the humidity has to stay high.
