I wish I didn't have to work! One pipped in a funny place while I was at work. Not completely at the wrong end but a bit below the air cell. I did pull a little shell off at the pip. All seems very quiet in the egg though. Hoping it's just resting and drawing in that yolk. Ready to jump in if...
Still have a few eggs in there. I float tested and they were all good but didn't see much movement. Gonna give them a few more days then try again if I don't get any
I've seen a lot of people post about having eggs shipped to them. Does anyone have contact info for a good reputable dealer. Thinking about trying some.
For anyone following, it pipped, it zipped (most of the way) now I just hope it's taking a little nap and something didn't go wrong while I was at work. Yes, I'm a worry wort lol
My chicken eggs were due to hatch on the 26th, just a few minutes ago the first one pipped. If they are still moving, you still stand a chance. I'd wait it out a bit longer
I did, no cracks at all. Heard the first chirps about 11 hours ago. I don't want to jump the gun and help but given they are so overdue I'm concerned it can't get through the shell and will die.
Here's the latest, not giving up entirely but I think we've lost most of the eggs but one moved and peeped at me with a gentle tap. should I help it out at this point?
Ok so what's the best method of cracking the egg without hurting the possible chick? Gonna wait to do that for as long as possible, just wanted an idea of what I need to do.
