So I have three of these babies. They're absolutely beautiful, the pictures definitely don't do any justice to the red hues in their feathers.
Rooster is Dark Brahma and the hen is a Rhode Island Red.
Is there a name for them or should I just keep calling them my "Pinks" after the pink blush...
I recently super duper deep cleaned my incubator before I set this batch of eggs.
Always using hand sanitizer before I handle. Just seems like they're progressing all the way right up to the day they're supposed to hatch 😕
When I lockdown I stop turning, keep the temp between 99.5 and 100.5 and humidity between 60% and 70%.
The pictures are just from 1 egg from different views so people could see it 360°.
It was definitely alive and moving when I locked down at day 19 along with the other 2 that I'm sure are dead...
Thank you! I will discard it now. I don't know why this keeps happening. It was alive and moving when I locked this batch down. I can't figure out why I'm having such an awful hatch rate and it's always after lockdown.
I'm having a horrible time trying to hatch. Seems like 1 out of every 4 eggs will hatch. I have a couple white leghorn/golden wyandotte eggs. The first one hatched right at 21 days, we are at 23 days on the other egg now and I'm pretty sure it's dead. I don't want to cull it too early but it was...
