    February/March 2017 Hatch-a-long

    Pip, Patsy, and Annie! The largest egg, Hazel, didn't make it. She internally pipped at the same time as Annie. They were both rocking and peeping, then Pip, who was my first hatched, ran over both eggs and rolled Hazel around like she was playing soccer. I don't know if it confused the one...

    My first chick is out and looking good! Another pipped in the wee hours and looks like it's about to zip, rocking, cheeping, and pecking! The other 2 are wiggling pretty steady!

    At day 19. Yesterday, before lockdown, I pulled the 3 questionable eggs out (first ever hatch, and blue eggs, so I wasn't sure...and truthfully, just didn't want to give them up. Lol) Today, we have eggs rocking a bit, so I'm very excited. So far, out of 8 shipped, 4 are still viable. Temp is...

    Day 14 on my chickie-children. Looks like 3 more didn't form, so it's 4 out of 8 still in the running.

    My grandgirls are my egg guards.

    I'm a first-time hatcher, getting 8 eggs on my birthday. After letting them rest, I set them in the incubator in the livingroom. My daughter and her 3 daughters are staying with us for a while. They are 9, 5, and 3. I was really worried about them bothering the eggs, so we all sat together and...

    Wen ahead and tossed the egg that had cracked during shipment. It had lots of bubbles, and where the others have a thickness at the top, it was still clear all the way through.

    I'm new, but I'd say, sure! Stick around and share our hatches!

    I started my 8 eggs at 3am. I have a styrofoam model with forced air and auto turner. I ran it for two days dry, and temp stays right at 99.5. Humidity seems off (won't have an extra hygrometer until this weekend). Dry, it stayed between 22% and 30%. After adding water, it's still showing the...

    Setting 8 (one with a slight crack) in the morning. My first time, first chickens since I was a child. I'm in!

    Eggs are here!

    That would be great. Right now I have them on a shelf settling after their trip. I'll put them in the incubator in the morning. I can't get enough of the articles and forum...my Facebook friends are going to think I'm MIA. LOL

    She got them from eBay. This is the link: http://m.ebay.com/itm/282352241342 It's ended, of course, but I think you can still read the details. She's calling them Chiquita chickens. ???

    Hi, I'm Mik, expectant chicken mom, and new to the forum. I've been gorging on the articles and threads here at BYC. My daughter ordered eggs from a hatchery because I liked the pictures and yesterday was my birthday. Lol My soon-to-be husband got me an incubator. The eggs are silkie/americauna...
