    Anyone have chicks in Northeast Ohio?

    I just hatched a single bantam chick. It was my first incubator hatch. Does anyone have a chick I could have/buy/rent to keep mine company. I have started another incubator hatch but the chicks won't hatch until August 8th.

    Day 21 - my hatched little peep is in a brooder now all alone. Three of the four remaining eggs in the bator are quitters. There was an awful stink in the bator and so I quickly pulled each out and candled. Two of them were stinkers and one was clearly a quitter. I put the fourth on back in...

    Finally! The chick is out of its shell. I did end up helping after it was out except for one spot on its back that was stuck tight. Thanks for the support Cats Cradle and Stephanie739 - i am so relieved. I don't know how i'm going to survive waiting for the remaining four. None of...

    Glued to my incubator - you bet. The membranes around the zip line are looking dried out and some of the feathers looked dry as well. the egg did roll a little bit and now I see there is still a little bit not zipped, but there is a crack there. The membrane in that little area is still...

    I'm getting paranoid now - the chick is still kinda picking along the zip line and I can see it moving. I am worried about the humidity and the possibility of shrink wrap? How common is that? The humidity is staying between 70% and 75%. Is this high enough? What if my hygrometer isn't...

    My first zip - but no chick yet do they take a rest before they pop out of a zipped egg? The little zipper is chirping which is such a lovely sound....

    Question about candling bantam eggs

    Great - I am somewhat less nervous since I found that one of my eggs pipped just a little while ago. This is my first hatch so I don't really know exactly when to expect a pip.

    Question about candling bantam eggs

    Thanks for the reply - the air space is kinda slated but seems to curve around such that it dips on two opposing side of the egg.

    Lockdown started - I am so nervous and excited. I have not seen any movement when I have candled the eggs but the air space has gotten larger and the chicks seem to be getting bigger. I do have a new problem though - I received some more eggs in the mail yesterday that were shipped on the...

    Question about candling bantam eggs

    I almost to lockdown on my first incubator hatch. I just candled the five eggs and I didn't see any movement in any of the eggs. Should I be concerned. Also it seems the air space at the big ends is shaped funny in two of the eggs. Has anyone had something similar? Thanks in advance - I'm...
