Thanks for reply I'm useless with Fahrenheit sorry!
I'll go with the instructions then?
I've only used the janoel always run at 37.7 with success but maybe if you say that temp is too high my incubator is digitally wrong maybe as it is a janoel! Lol
Hi again everyone well ordered the new octagon advance 20.
Firsts I'd like to add it seems a greats wee job, hold temp wonderful BUT the main instructions supplied by brinsea say to run temp at 37.5. (99.6F) Usually I run my incubators at 37.7 as majority of people do so I'm really unsure what...
Yes I've two thermometers going as I don't trust the digital readout displayed on bator.. The bator only went to higher humidity during the day which easily corrected by opening the bator to let the humidity out when it got too high.
Im doing same methods as I did with the past hatches in the...
As above, I know you lot probably sick of hearing this as I've been through most if not all threads on here regarding late hatches.
Right now I'm on day 23 going into 24. I've sulmtaler bantam eggs in and a black japanese in a hatcher at mo. They needed lockdown 4 days before my other batch so...
Thought that as no matter what they're all set on same day same time.
I've a black Japanese, few sulmtaler bantams and cemani to go into lockdown two three days before the rest as the shipped sulmtaler and ayam were late/delayed by time they got here.
So far 5/6 cemani shipped alive. But the...
That's you beet and seet.. Well I did go round the whole incubator with temp gauge which was all ok as I thought.
Your statement however on the shipped eggs getting hot SPOT ON I think, I'm in Northern Ireland so our weathers up and down. When these particular eggs was shipped we were having a...
Well I'm a little confused. Ok so last Wednesday I set 6 of my own ayam cemani and sulmtaler then bought in different lines to hatch so they're unrelated to mine so yes added more, ayam cemani eggs 6 sulmtaler eggs, both of which were shipped.
So candled them. Sulmtaler shipped eggs are totally...
No they are outside in a coop and run with broody hen. On grass, before that they were in shed in a chick coop/run on concrete but filled with shavings
Literally one day he limped the next he was like this :( this breed is very expensive so I'd be gutted to lose another chick got 6 in total, one got squashed by mother hen. Now this wee dude is all messed up.
(Thanks for reply) total guessing game with this chick!
Hi all in need of some hurried advice. Noticed one of my ayam cemani chicks that are 7 weeks old limping. Saw nothing obvious a bit of poop stuck to its foot so flicked that off thinking that maybe was why.
Next day chick was down, one leg stretched out in front of it the other leg was fine. I...
Thank you for quick reply. I'll do what you say it's my only option. Not a good place to be broody at all. She disappeared and this is how we found her, wish I'd of found her earlier so I could of moved her and nest before this.
Thanks again I'll keep updated :)
Hi all, I've a broody magpie duck that's been sitting for the duration in a hedge in the most horrible area she could find.
One duckling hatched late on Sunday early Monday. Since then there has been nothing, she's still sitting tight but I'm starting to worry her lone duckling. I've left food...
Well I've 3 magpie ducks and a drake. The other week I noticed eggs in a nest I just thought they're all laying in there - went inside and came out to find piglets had broke out and wrecked nest and ate eggs.
My black/white magpie duck started acting weird as if depressed I actually thought she...
Aww. We'll today I went out to three.. That's them all laying now. They also think the mini piglets are there babies haha they sit on them when mama pigs out lol
