Thank you for the advice. The chicks hatched by the peahens do not seem to have this problem.

I have had problems with my chicks failing to hatch. They see to be fully developed but fail to break the air sac. fail to pip or fail to get out of the shell. The ones that I help out of the shell seem to have one or both feet that turn under. What advice can you give me.

last season I had several birds hatch with feet that were curled under. I want to avoid that this season if I can. Is it an incubator heat or humidity problem or something else.

The culprits are no longer a threat and the pen perimeters have been updated.

I something killed my silver pieds. I know it is a bad time of year for this but I would like to replace them as soon as possible. Does anyone have any suggestions where I might find some?
