    Could you check out my egg pics and see if you think they have pipped internally, please?

    Need egg advice

    Here are some pics of the four that made it. To my untrained eye I'm wondering if they have pipped internally, but I need some experts to tell me for sure.

    Need egg advice

    Thank you! I will see if I can get some decent pictures when I candle tonight. I've been able to tell with past hatches if the egg is fertile at day 10, past that...🤷

    Need egg advice

    Thanks for the replies. I've done about 4 hatches and I'm just not ever sure what I'm looking at or how to tell how far along they are when I candle them. Do either of you have a resource I could check out?

    Need egg advice

    Hey, all, So I had a hen sitting on a near, she was on it possibly 2 weeks once I realized she was sitting, I don't know how long before that. I noticed 2 days ago she was off the nest and today realized something got her. One egg is broken, there are 8 others intact. I was going to leave them...

    Incubation question

    I was reading about making a "sandal" for the curled toes. I'm going to do that today.

    Incubation question

    Thank you all. This was an odd hatch, only about a 54% hatch rate and three of them have curled feet. All my temp and humidity levels were consistent throughout the incubation. Thanks for all the advice. I've got some cuties.

    Incubation question

    Hello, hatching time again here. So I started all my eggs at the same time. I have one keet that's been hatched for 24 hours now, 6 others that have hatched within the last 20 hours and 7 eggs that have at least piped. Should I remove the hatched keets even though I run the risk of shrink...

    First attempt at incubating

    I read it took a gray pearl and slate, I think, (gray)? R2elk would probably know if that's correct. I love waiting and watching all the wonderful colors that come out of the eggs. It's so fun!

    First attempt at incubating

    Man! I've got the right combo, just aren't getting those eggs I guess. My other, half went to a cousin and half went to my dad. All doing well. My dad's think they are chickens. One of his hens took to them when he integrated them, and they follow her around. It's adorable!!!

    First attempt at incubating

    Well, I found another clutch of eggs and incubated 13. 11 hatched! My first group was all pied gray pearls. This set has more variety! I've got several pied gray pearls again, 2 white, and MAYBE a royal pure or two. I'm trying to learn from you all on keet colors and feel like the black bars on...

    First attempt at incubating

    So these little guys are 2 weeks old. I have them in a brooder in our attached garage. This is the 4th batch I've started this way. Typically the keets are LOUD. Like we can hear them in the house, all hours of the day loud. This group is very quiet. Rarely make the loud cheeping sound the other...

    First attempt at incubating

    We did it! 14/17 hatched. I am attaching some pics. I am figuring most are pied pearls, but could a few possibly be royal purple? I'm not sure if they have enough white on their wings. Thanks again for everyone's help!

    Ok, thank you! It's so exciting. We have 5 more to go. I'm anticipating 2 didn't develop and they havent had any pips or movement. Thanks for all your help. I appreciate it!

    First attempt at incubating

    Thanks for the info. I have 9 hatched now, waiting on 8. One has its beak sticking out. If it doesn't progress should I help this one? I'm please with their progress so far! They are all pied which surprises me because we have a few different colors. You have jumbo guineas? How much bigger are...
