Thanks, I'm having some really nice marked chicks out of my trio. They are selling as fast as I can hatch them, and I have a waiting list right now. Thinking I need to add another pied hen before next season. I think I would be crowding my breeding pen if I added two more.
How big of pens do...
I have now had 9 Peachicks hatched out of 25, still hopefully for two that are not at day 28 until tomorrow. The first half of these were started point down before I started putting them on the side. Having better hatches with them on the side. Have to tape the feet on about 1/4 of them to get...
Maybe I need to open my door daily for fresh air. The digital sportsman is so automatic that I have only been opening to put eggs in once weekly or to put eggs down in the hatching tray, which would be once weekly and to remove the live chicks & unhatched bad eggs. I have auto top off water so...

Here is my first hatched peachick. Pied from my java/ Indian blue pied pair. It is about 13 hours old. Just took him out of the incubator and putting in brooder with Brinsea warmer. [/IMG][/IMG]

It's driving me crazy!! The pip whole is slightly enlarged and that didn't happen until the last hour! If it's not out by in the morning I think I'll try and help it. My temp is steady at 100.0 humidity at 70%. Still nothing out of the other egg that I thought was possibly fully developed...
Ok guys this is my first peachick hatch, how long normally between pip and zip, hatch??? Just got home and no change in the pip from this morning. I know it wasn't there when I check at midnight last night.
Very disapointted, candled the four eggs due for lockdown (day 25). Two are half clear, look like quitters. Other two looked good but couldn't see and movement. Just hoping to get at least one to hatch!!
Did you set them all at the same time? Do you usually have them hatching spread out like this? I am due to lockdown my eggs tomorrow, hope is can join you with good a good hatch and pics :-)
