    How long will she sit for after they hatch?

    So my mix batch of 6 out of 11 eggs (4 silkie bantam eggs and 2 ISA cross) started hatching last night and hatched sometime today. 3 out of 6 have hatched, both ISA Xs and 1 silkie. I did a quick gentle candle of 2 out of 3 of the unhatched silkie eggs and both were still alive. Just 2...

    Will chicks be ok with a ramp?

    Check them on day 22, so it doesnt disturb them to much. Hope they hatch :)

    Will chicks be ok with a ramp?

    Whatever you do do not help the other chick if its taking a bit longer to hatch. After the first internal pip it can take up to 24 hours for them to externally pip and that can also take up to another 24 hours. You can check under then hen really quickly to check but dont pick up or turn the...

    Will chicks be ok with a ramp?

    You could probably do a ramp but it most likely would have to be covered or netted over the top and sides otherwise your gonna need some pillows or soft thick material under it so if they fall it would soften impact. The first choice is better but 2nd as a back up

    Will chicks be ok with a ramp?

    As long as the ramp isnt to steep and has some grip for the chicks to get up they should be alright. Imo I would lock her in the nesting box till they hatch and as long as she has food and water she will be alright like that for a day or 2. It would be best to move her closer to the ground but I...

    Internal pip

    Yes, it can be very stressful. I have had the same thing happen before. Make sure the temp and humidity are stable and just wait. The one that has externally piped should hatch and the one with a safty hole might be delayed. If it still hasnt made any progress after 48 hours you can assist it...

    Internal pip

    They should be, check if you can hear pips of movment. If not poke a tiny hole in the end with an air sack just in case

    Internal pip

    They will be fine, let them figure it out, it can take up to 24 hours for one to externaly pip (in my experience) and then it can take another 24 hours for them to fully unzip.

    The last egg? Is it dead?

    It was on day 24 and I could still see blood vessels, the egg was under a hen. I opened the egg up and found the chick formed upto day 16-18 but the blood vessels had dried to the egg shell

    The last egg? Is it dead?

    So have had a really bad hatch and lost 17 out of 18 eggs but the last one might be gone to. So the last egg has very visible blood vessels, like blood vessels at day 16-18 but it has not changed for 3 days, no growth of them or the embryo. I can't see any movement (I havent looked to hard for...
