I hatched this bantam cochin chick out of a pen that had mixed colors. What color would you think it could turn out to be? It has a blue-ish body with a bright golden yellow head. I have two of these one is paler.
Do Xrays cause eggs to not develope? I just got 36 eggs 15 did not develope at all. The air cells were intact and when I cracked them open everything looked in very good shape except they didn't develope. My eggs are incubating right along side of them and they are growing very well. I had...
I have 17 out of 20 assorted colors of Silkies running around in my incubator thanks to Marneypoo and her great shipping methods. Best hatch ever!!!!!! And the second very successful hatch from this seller.
I have an egg with an aircell that goes all the way down from top to bottom and a little up the other side. It almost encircles the entire egg vertically. I have been thinking of tossing it but when I candle it the veins still appeared red. Today is day 18. I went into a very dark room and...
I have an egg with the air cell on the pointy end, it is not a shipped egg. I did not realize this until 3 or 4 days ago and turned it pointy side up when I discovered it during candling. I candled it again today and the chick is still alive and should do an internal pip today. I worry it is...
I recently got a box of 36 well packaged shipped eggs. All had dislodged or ruptured air cells in spite all precautions being taken. I let them rest 24 hours in the bator unplugged. Then I turned the bator on but not the turner and let them come up to heat and let them sit 48 hours. After 48...
My hubby brought me home 5 hens that a co-worker gave him. They are all EE's but two look like this. I was wondering if this would be considered wheaten. It is a year and a half old.
Ok they (2 silkies) pipped one morning and then sat there all day. all night, most of the next day. So I finally carefully cracked them out of the shells bit by bit. The had fully absorbed their yolks, did not lose a drop of blood, and were fine after they dried off. They are running around...
Yesterday morning I awoke to find a pip on day 20, as the day went on I got 4 more pips. Today is day 21. still have the pips but no zips. 9so the first is at about 24 hours since pipping) My humidity is around 70. BUT my temp is 98.8 and I can't get it any higher. It had been between 99 and...
I received some shipped eggs that a few with aircells were totally destroyed and sloshing about (they were very well package but we know how it goes with shipping). I put them in the bator anyway and surprise surprise they developed and are still alive on day 16. The air space however is...
I got shipped eggs a few days ago. I let then sit 24 hours in a cool place. Yesterday I let them sit in an egg carton in the incubator because of detached and ruptured air cells. A lot of these eggs are very porous. This morning (they have not even been in the bator 24 hours yet) something...
