They are wonderful for a classroom or school environment. They maintain thier own temperture so when the air shuts off it doesn't. If you are in at home environment maybe it is not needed but an environment that can't be as closely watched ideal.

Awwww! They are soooooo cute.

Doesn't look to big to me either. I am a newbie but looks very similar to the ones that hatched in my bator last week.

Yea although we will never know for sure, That is the only logical assumption that I can make. We had a really cold start to spring especially at night so although is barely dropped it was enough to delay. Dunno why we had so much movement on Day 17 though. And the lock down weekend was...

Got eggs from a wonderful breeder. A student in my class brought in all the supplies from their chicken farm. The chicks were left in the incubator until they fluffed. A little over 24 hours. The chickens were only handled by myself and the owner to encourage to eat and drink. It was an...

One that was breathing Hard thrived then died. It was devastating. The other is still hobbling along. Regardless of the rules I should have broke those chicks out about 8 hours sooner. especially after I watched the others struggle so much and as late as they were. Lesson Learned. It...

Ok, so first let me say that it has been a really rough week. Tuesday, Day 21, we had nothing. Wednesday, Day 22 We had One pip Unzip and die before it got out. Thursday, Day 23, Four pipped and 2 hatched. Today Day 24 Came into two fluffly Chicks, but one was very badly crook legged...

This morning my two hatchers were fluffy but one was crook- (sp) legged. his leg was bleeding and it could not walk. Farmer said he had to be put down. What causes that? Is it just a regular birth defect? I have one that is really strong walking around everywhere but one of his legs slide...

I am a newbie however I have battled it out with a Little Giant Incubator for 24 DAYS offically in a school environment. I left both red plugs in until hatching. The temperature was hard enough to regulate without worry of those vents. I am hatching now and I have only removed one in order to...

Listen to this site they know what they are talking about. I am a rookie at this. It is offically Day 23 and I just had two hatch and two pip. I am going to leave mine over the weekend and try to get the last three to hatch. can't hurt... BUMP the HUMIDITY UP! As silly as it sounds I...

He was pretty dry. and my humidity was really high so I opened the top vent a bit and dropped a smidge of sugared pedialyte to him/her. it drank just a drop and went back to sleep. I am not going to worry to much about it. I am sure it is just resting. It hatched really quick today so it may...

I have a chick that is really weak. He hatched at 2:30 today and even now can either pick his head up or his bottom but not both at the same time for more than a sec. I was told to give a couple drops of Pedialyte with sugar. HOW OFTEN?

This is my first hatch as well... I am on day 23 and had two 4 pip and 2 hatch today. Thanks to the people on this site telling me patience is a virtue. I have two struggling right now to unzip. I am worried because of the membranes being thick. I would't toss them till Day 26 though...

Two hatchers not dry but messing with the other eggs that are pipped. Scared they are going to kill the trying to hatch chicks. They keep laying on the pipped. What to do? Guess I will just leavin them be. I dunno what else to do.

Pulled back some of the real thick membrane real carefully on the one that was struggling. He kicked out in about 1 1/2 hours from then. I bumped humidity up but now it is way high because I have 2 that have hatched...YAY!!! I have two more pipped but one is again havin trouble getting...

Had one chick die afetr haf unziping. I have two that have pipped but struggling!!! It seems as though the white membrane aroud the chick is very thick... I dunnio what to do they are breathing HARD.... Should I Help! get some of the membrane off? Should I help unzip?

The one that was stuck died. We helped it unzip just a little and when we go no reaction or movement we figured he had expired. The membrane was so tough. The humidity is running around 68% so we added a couple of wet sponges b/c the membranes are white and thick looking on the two that have...

It cracked the shell 24 Hours ago but Unzipped sometime over night. It has been at school over night so I dunno when he offically half unzipped. I cant see him moving at all!!! my humidity was down a little so I dropped a wet sponge in. Worried it was to dry... EEEK!!!

Half Unzipped for At Least 3 hours possibly more should I help?
