    Newly hatched chicks dying one by one

    I am hoping anyone has any idea or suggestions. I have a second batch of grey partridge chicks (5 days old) dying one by one, last batch was 25 chicks and after the dying stopped (around at the age of 2,5 weeks) I was left with 8 ... Now with a second batch the same thing seems to happen. They...

    In the market for a new incubator!

    I have a Genesis 1588 and I have to say, I am disappointed. Mine has different temperatures in every corner, and its not like the difference is very small. Even had a bit more powerful fan put in, but I think it somehow made things worse, as last year the temp was high where the turner motor is...

    Are my eggs dead and chicks crippled because low temps?

    So now I think maybe Danny was right, I should try to lower the humidity as well. On my last hatch that ended yesterday, I had the humidity going around 60-65%, and temps were between 100.2 and 101.1 (on different sides), mostly 100.5 on the cooler side, since the hot days. And I tried to rotate...

    Are my eggs dead and chicks crippled because low temps?

    Ok, so my ringnecks were internally pipped (some) on day 22, and the ones that did get out were out by the evening of 24th day. I tried to keep the hatcher temps the same that the pheasant eggs had in the bator after I rose the temps - about 100.5 to 101.6. In the bator they had constant temps...

    Intervention: Helping Your Chicks Hatch

    I don`t know, if that helps, but I have had in every of my few hatches a chick that is "crooked" - it can`t stand up, drags itself around and the neck is crooked to one side. I read, that possibly they have had slipped both tendons, the last one I got few days ago could not straighten its legs...

    What is up with my hatches?? Any and all tips welcome!!

    Well, I have Genesis 1588 and .. it seems like it has quite much differece in temperatures around the bator. My grey partridge were quite late and had difficult hatch, while now yesterday I saw, that my pheasant eggs, that I should have put in the hatcher today and stop turning, they would be...

    Are my eggs dead and chicks crippled because low temps?

    Thank you, Danny, I did up it around 1 degree. Do you think if those 7 were dead and not internally pipped, I had humidity problems - I did open the hatcher quickly quite many times during those long days, but the humidity and temp seemed to me raise up pretty fast, within few minutes. I have...

    Are my eggs dead and chicks crippled because low temps?

    I had a really frightening hatch just ending today , and I am now thinking, is there anything I should change quickly, to help save most of the new eggs in the bator. I had 19 grey partridge eggs, that went in the hatcher, and now I have 12 chicks, out of which one has most probably slipped both...

    Candling question: part of egg down from air-sack has no veins

    Hello, once again I have silly question, that I do not seem to find an answer with a search. I have partridge eggs going on day 10 and I candled them, found some eggs that looked different - they have veins coming down from air sack and going around the egg, and then suddenly sort of stop or...

    Partridge breeding (paired up but no eggs)

    Well, interestingly so, I did put one of last year`s egg that I had blown empty in there. And today I found this pair`s first egg! Interesting. The egg is quite much smaller, though, about half the size of a normal egg. I have not seen my partridges or quail lay eggs that are that much smaller...

    Please help: emergency reprogramming Genesis 1588

    Ok, thank you again, I`ll try to relax. I decided to settle with 100.5(6) on the hotter side and 100 on the other, and see what becomes of it. I have partridge and pheasant in there together, strangely I was told by an old-timer that pheasant needs somewhat hotter temps (not to mention the much...

    Please help: emergency reprogramming Genesis 1588

    So, if I lower the temp, like the manual says, by 0,5-1 degree with switch 1, and then when I am done, switch on only 4 for operation, like the manual says, then am I on setting 4 ? Or how do you get "setting 3" - I thought you can add or take off the temp (with switching them just like the...

    Partridge breeding (paired up but no eggs)

    Ok, would there be anything I can do, to prevent it? They have complete food for layers. Edit: Ok, maybe I should put an empty egg from last year in there, to see if they break it (if they try to peck) or maybe that will encourage her to start to lay ... ?

    Partridge breeding (paired up but no eggs)

    I hope maybe someone could have any good tips or idea for me. I have a pair of grey partridge (hungarian), they have been paired up since the beginning of May, but the female has not started to lay eggs. All my other 4 pairs are laying for weeks now, some since the beginning of May. I wonder...

    Please help: emergency reprogramming Genesis 1588

    Thank you so much, hopefully this will be helpful to other`s as well, who, like me, find it all very confusing at first I think maybe the manufacturer should include a picture instead of the graphic, to show how the switch is off and on, in case any "slow" person like me gets this incubator, hehe.

    Please help: emergency reprogramming Genesis 1588

    Thank you so much!! Since I have by now no idea, which ones are on or off - could you specify, do you mean by "pressing each little switch down" that I should press down (or sort of more inside of the thing) the lower end of the swithes (away from the numbers)? Because if I start with switches...

    Please help: emergency reprogramming Genesis 1588

    Hmm, ok, I would try that, but what do you mean by "left side" and "right side"? Edit: I found the other thread about resetting, but ... still not sure how the on and off positions are or how the light should blink, if it is heating up.

    Thank you, I did search on it like crazy before posting and did now again, can`t seem to find anymore than this one thread, that really does not help me at this point (the OP on this had the same thing happen, when doing the factory settings, but later changed something and got it working, but...

    Hello, I hope anyone can help me, loosing my mind here . I wanted to reset the factory settings, since mine was running quite high (100.9) since I put in the last eggs. I thought it is a simple manouver and it will continue to work fine ... ok, I had to remove the eggs to another incubator and...

    Grey Partridge female with sticky-gluey, totally transparent "poo"

    Update: the grey female I was worried about, started laying ok (I also tried to get her eating some extra stuff and gave her some extra vitamins and minerals for few days in her water and food, although she has a "complete" feed, I thought it will not hurt it she gets lightly some extra vit/min...
