    My New Year Hatch along chicks are looking good. Here they are! I've kept the 20 easter eggers.

    @lpyrbby hmm... it looks weak, like it's lungs aren't fully developed. All I can think of is to keep reducing the humidity... assuming you don't have anymore external pips... so it can get fresh air. I read somewhere that if the egg was stored too long before setting that the chick can hatch...

    If there is too much humidity there won't be much oxygen to breath. Lift the lid for two seconds, wait a moment, lift the lid again. One of my chicks did that and it was fine after the incubator was de-humidified.

    34 sounds like lot, doesn't it LOL 12 are easter egger leghorn mixes, half of those will be male (freezer camp) and half of the other half will lay pink eggs. I don't want those three, so they'll be sold. That will leave me with only three super blues. 21 are from my F1 Splash...

    Woah! What happened here??? I wasn't really sure about this egg because it was so dark. Did I lose it before or after lockdown? What caused this?

    Sorry about the ones you lost. The others are ADORBALE though. The chick on the lower right of the very last picture is so cool looking.

    I had a slow poke finally hatch out here on day 22. The umbilical cord was still attached to the shell and the chick was dragging it's whole shell around by it's naval. After seeing pictures of another member's chick with intestines hanging out of the chick's naval, I got worried. Sooo, my...

    I put chicks in the brooder. My husband looked at them and said, "It's amazing that just three weeks ago they would have been breakfast."

    If you have any that have fluffed up, quickly and carefully take them out. Opening the incubator will dry it out just enough to lower the humidity. I did that and a few of mine that had done nothing pipped, zipped and hatched. Good luck!!
