Yes it hatched by itself over night and all was good 😊

Yup, he hatched a day after this, all on his own

Hi, does this goose egg look like it had internally pipped to you? I waited until it had been like this for 24 hours before putting the safety hole in. Its been like this for another 24 hours since. Any advice? i hear tweeting

Hello, is this an internal pip? Its been like this for 28 hours, ive done a small safety hole, was this too early?

Just got this one in today, i think its a feral, very very thin, ive tubed it now and given antibiotics just in case. Hopefully it’ll do well. Very pretty colours.

Yes exactly that! Lots of clapping and it holds its wings right back and almost falls.

I get all my pigeons from people who have found them injured, i rehabilitate them, lock them in the loft for a week and them let them free fly. This pigeon is different to all my others, it has feathery feet, a much shorter head and beak and has a completely different style of flying, could...

As I don’t know exactly what day it’s on I don’t want to put it into lockdown to early or too late

Do you think I should put it into lockdown yet? Or wait w few days

Hello everyone, i have just candled my goose egg on what I think is day 23 (I’m not 100% sure as any goose had started incubating then got bored) and I think the air pocket looks a very strange shape, what do you think? Thanks in advance

Hello, sorry i didn’t reply, I took it out and quickly helped a little and put it back, they all hatched fine after that

I would help but I am worried of “vacuum wrapping” the other chicks.

How long after external pipping should the chick hatch, I have a chick that has externally pipped for 24 hours, is that too long?

That is a very cute little dog. I live in Ireland so the main predators would be pinemartens and foxes, Andrew hawks sometimes.

I have some silkies and some tiny black bantams, and then some layers, and I have cotirnix quail, I didn’t think I could have them free range, but it’s working fine so far.

Which ones would you say look like homers?

As i have said I don’t actually have the birds yet, but when I get them I will defiantly check. Thank you for the advise

They are all mine, but three of them are from an animal rescue and have come in injured. Thank you very much for the advise.

That’s not good, I’ve always had my hens and even quail free range and never had a hawk problem.

Thank you very much, I live in Ireland and don’t have many birds of prey in our area, but I will keep that in mind. Good luck with your flock!
