Okay my bantie egg isnt moving anymore or peeping but my silkie egg is peeping and it seems like it is trying to break out, so i bumped the humidity up to about 70 its the 12th hour since its pipped so its gonna be soon, sadly i have to go to school today but when i get home im hoping for the...
Ty im gonna go to sleep and see what happens in the morning they were turned more than 3 times a day and i toke them out of carton on the 17th day and laid them in incubator
Okay this hatch has been filled with mistakes because this was our first hatch.

Now we have 2 Bantie 6 Silkie 2 Bantam whos breed is unknown 2 Rhode Island...

We finished our incubator and added an egg turner for them using some PVC pipe a Aluminum dish and two trays with the lids cut off
