Ok so I have a bunch of various breeds of chicks 8 weeks and old outside in a small chicken house I made for them. Lots of room inside and weather tight. It has a small run on the outside of it. The past two nights I have found 4 chicks dead in the mud outside in the run, apparently drowned...
So the Hatch is over.........6 beautiful new baby chicks. I was hoping for more out of 14 but happy. This was our first hatch. The girls got to see them all zipper out of the eggs and now the fun of taking care of them begins.
I did an eggtopsy on the other eight that didn't make it and this...
I am new to the whole hatching eggs thing, and this is my first time hatching with my daughters. I have 25 hatching eggs that are 21 days in the incubator. I can see a few of them moving and shaking but still no sign of hatching? Is this normal? Advice?
Thanks!
