Okay--- So if this little one does not come out by 3:30-- I have to open the incubator to add water to the wells. There is not much left. I noticed the pip at 6:30 am and there has not been much of a change except membrane turning a little yellow. Comments?
See it live at...
I'm just wondering how accurate weight loss (11-13%) is compared to actual successful hatch rates. Mine have lots just over 10% and I'm locking down. Just wondering... :)
So I have no other choice but to lock down a day early. The eggs were put in the incubator May 1st... 630 am... And will be locked down today at noon. I am a little concerned. I have a Brinsea Advanced... Fill water pots as necessary... Weigh my eggs... ( which is my 2nd concern) weight loss has...
So--- Day 16--I am seeing developed eggs-- yesterday (day 15) saw movement.. today--- not as much... Would this be because the chicks are getting too big to move around??
Thanksss
Hi! I am wondering how often you need to fill the water pots. I am asking because last year when I hatched chicks in the classroom I could leave the incubator Friday afternoon and tend to it Monday morning without issues of water running out. Now it seems like it is using a lot more water...
Hello! I was cleaning my incubator and I moved the fan to clean around it.. now I am not sure which way it go back-- fan blowing air down or taking it up??
Help please! =)
Good morning! I would love some help figuring out if I have some males or females! In the pictures you will see RIR's about 14 weeks.. and RI red/ Americauna mixed.. about 12 weeks. =)
THANKS
I just wanted to say thank you to BYC and all of the wonderful, informative and supportive members. I successfully hatched 6 out of 7 (my first hatch) Number 7 is weak and needing extra care. I have been able to turn to BYC for support all along the way. If I need anything... I turn to you!!! :D:D:D
Hello! I am in lock down-- We ended up locking down a day early due to the school being closed-- (Lock down Saturday Morning instead of Sunday) Monday morning I refilled the water pots to the top... I looked into them today(without opening the incubator) and noticed the water has gone down a...
Okay.. My eggs went in the incubator on April 25th- at 9 a.m. I am a teacher who is unable to get into the building on the weekends... Would it be too early to begin lock down on Friday the 11th at 4pm? Day 17? I am a little stressed about this-- I am trying to find a way to come in on...
I admit it.. I am addicted to candling! This is my first hatch (for my 1st graders). We are on day 8- saw lots of movement today.. How often is toooo often to candle.. I was hoping to candle once more (tomorrow). I have a Brinsea Mini Advanced... No hygrometer.. Just monitoring the water levels...
I got to my classroom this morning and my water pots in my Brinsea Mini Advanced were empty--- I filled them on Friday around 4-- Will my babies be okay? We are on day 5---
I candled them to see what was going and I can see through the brown eggs but the Americaunas are harder to see through...
