    Help please!

    It was hard to see the veins when I candled them last night - i don't know if my light wasn't bright enough or my eggs are dark - I put a post on here with pictures to get people's opinion on them but no one looked at them I guess.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks! I don't think it was that long.. I did take her her out of the other box, she went and ate a bit then went right back to her 5 eggs- so I hope they are alright!!

    emergency please help and look at my pics

    I think Randy you could make a brooder box, heat lamp, food, water if the others aren't hatching - dip her beak gently into the water - watch that she figures out how to drink/eat- -- but I think they are ok to go without food and water until day 3 (someone correct me if I'm wrong!)

    Chicks a-growing??

    Hi all... I put some eggs under my broody hen, (6) and it is day 7 - I candled them and 5 have a dark blob about 1/3 of the egg- I couldn't see any veins though, or the little dark spot, but could be my lights not bright enough? Or do you think they are duds? (I can try to take some pics )...

    *HELP* Emergency! Picture in post! Don't know what it is or what to do!

    Thank-you! I didn't know if I should try to pull it out! Do you think that the vent is bulging because she has been trying to push it out? I have been soaking her, so I will do your suggestions. Thanks!
