a picture of one would be great.i have no idea what they look like. i am planning to go buy one today and i was hoping that someone could tell me where they got theirs and a good brand for them. thank you so much.
ive seen people pu that they have incubated in a toaster oven and just filled the tray on the bottom with water and had hatches. how good is this idea. if anyone has doen this i would love to know how that experice was. thanks so much
well i lost my last chick on day 21. this has to be the hardest one to lose because i was so close. well maybe i will have better luck next time with a better incubator. if any one is thinking about getting a chic bator please dont. there is no way to keep temps stable and they are really not...
well im on day 20 and nothing. i wanted to candle hima nd make sure he was still ok and since i read in antoher post that as long as the bator doesnt take too long to come back to temp its ok so i did. (longest sentance ever!) he looks good still squirming around in there. he hasnt piped the air...
im on day 19 and dont hear a thing is that normal. ive been talking to him all day and nothing not even a peep (hahahahahahah)
ok so now im on day 20 and nothing? patience is not one of my best qualities...as you can see. there any signs that i can check for ?
i am just so excited i cant stand it. i never thought i would make it this far. even though there is only one baby left i am really happy that at least i have him. now all thats left is for him to hatch lol. i know i know dont count your chickens ...but i really cant help myself i am just so...
well last night was night 17 and i did my final candling right... well as i was holding the egg with my flashlight underneath it... i swear this happened... the chick tried to peck at the light. i felt him twice peck at the egg. am i losing it? lol has this happened to anyone else?
im on day 18 with my one and only egg left. please keep your fingers crossed for me i really need it. i will be doing all the praying i can on this side whatever you guys can do on yours would be greatly appreciated. i wanted to let everyone know that i definately couldnt have gotten this far...
i have been on a search to find sexed silkies chicks for days it is impossible. i just want a playmate for my lonely chick! everywhere i have to buy at leats 25 or more and the ones that i dont have to buy that many are sold out of chicks. aghhhh i am willing to take any small bantam that is...
im trying so hard to order day old silkies that are sexed and the one place that has them are out of stock. i am very frusterated ive called all the feed stores in my area and every time I ask them if they have day olds they get an attitude and are like "NO"!!! it is so frusterating i just wich...
like i said i want to give my chick some company. has anyone ordered day olds online and if so from where. most of the places ive seen you need to order 25 or more. i dont need that many. i just want like 5. any suggestions? none of my feed stores around here have any.
i need someone who can ship day old chicks because only one of my eggs has survived. does anyone have any ideas. none of the ffed stores around my area offer day old chicks
seeing as how i only have one good egg left i am considering buying another day old chick so that the one i have isnt all lonely. what do you guys think? i am home most of the time but not always. what do you guys think?
i am incubating and ive gotten close to my last couple of days but i only have one baby left. i dont want it to be all lonely so i am wondering if anyone has a silkie chics (actually i will take any chick) that i could buy so my baby has a friend. thanks in advance

im sorry if this is a dumb question but i am a frim believer that the only dumb questions are the ones that are not asked lol! i saw someone say something about this and i was wondering. i always thought that you just couldnt know until they got older. well if anyone knows of a way to tell...
my incubator is a small yellow chep dome one i was wondering about putting water in them on the 18th day and on to bring up the humidity. i hear everyone saying not to open the incubator from the 18th day on so i really dont know what to do. since the incubator is so small as soon as i add water...
