Need all your opinions please. I have a silkie that has gone broody for the first time. My question is should I let her sit on eggs as I'm near spokane and we haven't reached the coldest point of the year yet? I know people do it on the other side of the state but don't know on this side as we...

Get Twinkies and put the hottest hot sauce you can get in them. Bears like sweets but now hot things. It is what got rid of the bear that came into our yard when I was younger.

If I didn't just fill up both my incubators I would have loved some of the silkie eggs but alas I am full :(

At 22 weeks I am going with pullet as I so absolutely no hint of sickles. My BO roo started to attempt to crow at 8 weeks and by 10 was clearly a roo as he had sickle feathers starting. Also I see no spur growth my roo had huge spurs around the age yours is.

From the picture your little one appears to be a hen. No comb growth that I can see.

It stopped moving so did a full egg topsy and what had happend is the chick was mal positioned and pipped through it yolk sack and the membrane filling the egg with the yolk sack.

So I opened a port hole in an egg to start an egg topsy as the whole egg was black with no visible air sack. What I found was the little guy is still moving about in there but there is liquid inside the egg and I'm beginning to wonder if it is a twin egg on top of it as there is barely any room...

Look like hens to me. Roosters are more white in the body usually.

She has the same type of face as my oegb. But mine are barely 4 weeks old.

I am leaning towards an old English game bantam. Would explain the small size characteristics.

Reporting that my one survivor egg hasn't hatched and I am sure it won't. I think that the veins popped when my dog knock the incubator off the table. So it just slowly bled out making it ok when I candled once I got home but died shortly after. I'm giving it till the end of today but not any...

M Mkay my offer still stands if you want some. I haven't done shipped eggs but will be doing some in the near future.

I'm in Spokane area. I could ship eggs though if interested.

Duck drover what part of Wa are you in? If close by I could give you some chicks that will be hatching soon or hatching eggs from my Easter eggers.

Thanks.

Thanks y'all for the sympathy. I have a lot more eggs set in the incubator or going to be in the incubator soon. It is just upsetting because my hatch for the 8/2 went very poorly and I only have one chick from 18 but she even might not make it so this is just frustrating.

I'm down to only one egg because my dog knocked the incubator off the table while I was out at my college. :(

I candle at all hours of the day if it is bright out I hide under a blanket to see better.

I don't quite understand the moisture thing. Is it pooling on the egg or is the egg laying in it. Also does it smell if yes chuck it before it turns into a egg bomb.

Thank you.
