yes and we must validate those issues!

I'm trying to imagine what 12 dozen eggs looks like in flat racks...

65 is good and will go up while they hatch I see too, whats the temp at? 98.5 is good. with higher humidity you don't want a high temp drop it down a degree. Open a air vent if have one or several they need oxygen. Its best to not open the door and if you have to, and you have a fan, turn the...

They are here!! little silkies came first, more pippin!! no word from the Bresse or turkeys yet

Hedemoras!!!! OOO lucky!!!

I'm hatching my first hatch right now too. I'm liking a rolled up wet with warm water paper towel.

When I was a kid all I could have for pets was chickens. It will be one of the best times of her childhood with chickens I think .

oh thanks so much! I'm using this. Great for keeping track of the shipped eggs and all.

yes like ozepat says... 10 days is good. These are my first and I was disappointed on day 7 when I could see nothing. Day 10 however I did see swimmers and veins! well now its getting where its dark in there and not much to see.. they are growing. Hoping they all make it out alive

grats!!!

yep I know its hard to wait.. but if you wait till day 7 or 10 you are gonna see so much more! I did the same thing... candling at day 4 with a magnifying glass hoping to see SOMETHING! seems to take forever! I have about 50 eggs in as well and 7 turkeys hatching this Sunday... finally.

Yes that thought did cross my mind.. it was different than straddle leg. He would throw himself backwards it looked like.

Aww yes some were just not strong enough. I always will try for them you never know. Sounds like you have a fun creative day! Carrot and papaya sounds delish. I've been posting things on ebay to sell and make chicken money. Gotta go out now and get a different cage from the barn for these...

oh poop! I just had a little day old polish that was like that... I did all the things for him, put in a coffee cup nest, gave vitamin and sugar water, electrolytes... he didn't make it thru the night. was like he was brain damaged.

Oh thats interesting for brooding and sounds beneficial! where do you get those heat emitters?

I 'm in the same predicament, I think I'm going use still air to hatch in. Or is there a reason i should have a fan in a hatcher? I have a hova still air now and if i look at it wrong the temp goes up. Since the egg tray is full it seems to do better. yes I think 100 -101 is good for still air...

hehe little mutt duckies!! they are gonna be cute!!! yes it is very addicting!

WOOT WOOT!!! gotta love when they run regular temps! My hova is hard to regulate unless the turner is full of eggs I found. pain in the hiney.. put a fan in it to help out and seems good now but crazy first week trying to regulate temp.
