    chick hatched with bloody yolk hanging out, please help

    thank you, hopefully I can figure out what went wrong and correct it next time. I will try getting a meat thermometer, I've looked around online but never ordered one because I saw too many reviews saying it was inaccurate but that makes sense so I could calibrate it. They hatched right on time...

    chick hatched with bloody yolk hanging out, please help

    I'm sad to say that it's died :( I don't think it was possible for it to survive with all that stuff hanging out. I have no idea what happened to cause such a terrible hatch but at least the two that I have seem to be doing okay

I have never had any of these problems before, and this is out of 12 (shipped)...

    chick hatched with bloody yolk hanging out, please help

    I don't know how to salt test humidity gauges but I had a brand new thermometer/hygrometer from incubator warehouse in there that's supposed to be very accurate which is why I got it, I also had a brinsea spot check thermometer to compare temp. I had the humidity around 30-40% throughout...

    chick hatched with bloody yolk hanging out, please help

    one of my chicks just hatched and when I went to take it out of the incubator I saw that it hadn't fully absorbed its yolk sack/blood vessels and it has a bloody mess hanging from its naval and still attached to the shell. I took it out with the shell and put it in a quarantine container, the...
