sorry about your bad hatch luck, I went 0-24 last spring. I've got 9 that are growing like weeds from the nov hatch. Won't do any more until next spring. Good luck on your next one.

i did an eggtopsy on my remaining eggs in the bator, there was 8 fully developed chickes that were shrink wrapped, and 3 that had partial development. Don't know why I had the shrink wrap, I know some will say humidity was the factor but I say it was mother nature, It is what it is. I got 9 good...
In a earlier post I had a pic of my pitbull, he's my ears when the birds are hatching. I don't hear the peeping in the shell, but he does. I locked down on day 19 and had one chick hatch that day, about 5 hours later. 10 more over the next 2 days mostly at night and in bunches of 5. I hope the...
webcam is down for now. Kept getting error messages all day and night so I'm going to give it a rest. No more chicks have hatched so I'm going to take the rest from the bator and break them open
Nathanya, not seeing where there's any requests for anything. I've been able to access the site with my phone, and others have told me that they have seen the chicks on their computer, don't know what's wrong.
Moved 11 out of the LG into a brooder I've made with a 10gal aquarium. I stood there and watched them for awhile to see what they were going to do and their curiosity took over and they all started moving around. Mostly toward the 75W bulb I'm using for a heat source, temp at bottom of brooder...
My last hatch had chicks hatching the night I locked them down. This guy or gal hatched about 5hrs after I locked this hatch down. I don't think they are so early.
pics aren't very good the flash was bouncing all around the bator, I'm using an lg and shot the pics through the window. The...
I'm doing a dry hatch and noticing that as the days go by my humidity is dropping. Day one started with the humidity at 36, day two was 29, and since then it has been either 26 or 25 until today which is day 16 it was 22. When it gets below 25, I add 1 or 2 teaspoons of water, I'm using an LG...
miscounted my days and should have candled tomorrow but I don't think anything would have changed. Don't know how these pics will turn out one is clear the other 2 show something.
My last hatch didn't candle very good. I had brown eggs and had trouble seeing anything. I would smell the eggs as I candled to check for rotton ones, but I left all the eggs in the bator for the full incubation period, plus a couple of days. My eggs just looked like dark blobs, no movement or...
