    June Hatch a Long

    I had the same problem with my first two hatches. I believe the thermometer that came with the bator was off. On the third attempt I got two new thermometers and 7 out of 9 chicks hatched! Yay. Now I have 7 babies a week old, 2 chickens that are 4 weeks old and 2 that are 8 weeks. Done...

    Chick Help!!! One day old chick.

    Can anyone tell me if this is normal looking for a chick that had a yoke sac not totally absorbed? She hatched yesterday, is eating, drinking, running around. I took her out of the incubator a day after hatching. Is there something I should do? I put some bactician around the area.

    What makes an egg blow up in an incubator? Just being not fertilized and heating up?

    I'm in! Second time around. Set 12 eggs on April 13th in a LG still air,no turner. First time only 1 of 18 hatched. Not sure where I went wrong the first time. I had several issues that most likely contributed to the bad hatch. A temp spike due to the sun hitting the incubator. Then an...
