will there be a october hatch a long thread? the lady i got my serama eggs from feels bad that i had such a terrible hatch(8 chicks out of 38 eggs) and will be sending me more eggs the begining of october
am up to 8 little serama chicks...7 are in the brooder and is still in the bator till it dries some more.
these are such adorable little chicks...esoecially with their upright little booties...dont have tails yet but they already hold the base of were their tail will be up...so cute
have another egg pipping..from the 2nd batch i just put into lockdown yesterday...silly serama keep hatching early but i hear that pretty normal for serama
baby serama 5 pipped and has been out maybe an hour...baby 3 has been out maybe 45 mins. babies 1 & 2 are peeping like mad hopefully they'll come out soon..baby 4 i'm worried about...hope its just napping. and baby 6 has pipped
just got home about 20 mintues ago and surprise! i look in the bator and 4 of the eggs that just went into lockdown yesterday are pipping! this is only day 19 but they are shipped and the lady i bought them from says that when she hatches out serama they start at day 19 quite often.
cant...
22 of my 38 serama eggs went into lockdown this afternoon...so excited...hatch day is friday.

chicken math got me today while at my local orschlens while i was getting dog food and quail crumbles...they usually never...
i have a little giant still air as well and one thing you should do if you haven't is remove one of the red plugs so there is a bit of air flow...this will be very important when its hatch time for your eggs so the chicks have enough oxygen and not stale air. i may require more work to keep...
yesterday i candled again and one egg that had a baby that was quite vigorous in it moving when i candled it before was no longer moving and another had a blood ring so i think they both perished. very sad...i know that since they are shipped eggs this can happen but i just want every baby...
11 days till hatch day for 22 of my serama eggs...so excited!! cant wait to see the adorable fuzz butts that hatch out.
hatch day for the other 16 eggs is the 15th so just a day under two weeks left for those

the egg turner in my bator will hold 42 chicken eggs so i think thats 3.5 dozen...i think the bator would hold more without then turner in but i like have the turner so i dont have the chance of forgetting to turn the eggs
my other 16 serama eggs went into the bator yesterday and so they should hatch about the 15th. the other 22 hatch the 13th so i'm going to be very busy when they all decide to hatch
also you know you have a hatching addicition when your egg turner only has three open spots left...and so you...
