A Silver sebright Bantam and a Japanese White Bantam. They are all in the brooder but those Bantam...

    Of my two eggs that are now at day 20 I have one pip. I seriously think this is going to be the only egg to hatch out of 14. i still have 7 others that go into lock down in 4 days.

    Stirkle, Early hatch is a sign of to high of a temperature. early is not good as chicks did not have the time required to develop correctly. some of the smaller breeds tend to hatch early though even up to day 19 and as far as I can tell it is still considered normal. Illia, congrats. Except on...

    The eggs do cool so I worked fast. I was sort of lucky in that regard in that it was easy to know the good ones from the bad. I also have an incubator that has tons of power. a 90 watt bulb. it can go from 75 to 100 degrees in about 2 minutes. The eggs where back in the bator and at a steady...

    well I candled my first set of 13 (Due on the 8th) only two are still in the running. I added them to the incubator that has the March 14th eggs in it until they need to go into lock down.

    Quote: that makes sense... where do you get a blue light I wonder. I spent 75 dollars on my flashlight.. don't want to buy another one. Is there a way to make a lens you think? I took a piece of blue plastic and placed over the lens of my mag lite (the small AA size) But it has to be pretty...

    Bec, What color is the light from your flashlight? The reason I ask, In my experience a blue light should make the reds and oranges of the egg show up better. I have this info from a bit of a strange source. When keeping fish in an aquarium, Blue light will make orange and red fish show their...

    I set 13 Serama eggs on the 18th in the evening. I am expecting hatching to be April 8th or 9th but was told Seramas like to hatch early.
