    Day 23, What the heck!?!

    At lockdown I had 13 chickens moving when I candled. On day 20 one hatched and now on day 23 not even another pip. My temps and humidity have been good. I had a couple spikes but nothing longer than an hour. Is this normal? Should I candle them or just them? Thanks!

    In Lockdown * Question about temp & hatched chicks left in bator

    I have a LG still air incubator. As you know it is very touchy and I can only get the temp to 98 or 102, no in between. Which is better? I think 102 will be too high for the chicks that hatch since they can't escape the heat. This is my first hatch and I don't want to mess it up, any advise is...

    Will this work for multiple hatchings?

    I know that it is not recommended to do multiple hatchings in the same incubator due to loss of humidity when the first eggs hatch. However, I want to hatch guineas and chickens and was wondering if this will work... what if I set the guinea eggs one week before I set the chicken eggs? Then they...

    Bantam Eggs?

    I am new to this and looking in to getting some bantams and had a couple questions about their eggs. (I'm sure these are silly questions for all you pros ) What is the average size of their eggs, does it take 2 Bantams to equal one "regular" size egg? Do they taste any different? Thanks!
