    The 6th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    Many years ago, when I was getting my second degree I did research on the development of chicken embryos. I would fenestrate the eggs just like that so the embryos could be observed as they grow. I would seal the holes with para film, which I melted on with a soldering iron. I would try doing...

    The fighting just started yesterday for my Easter babies. Went on all day. One roo has totally distinguished himself as a great flock guard. He is already defending the ladies.. No fear..... I think most of my SY over EEs are roos, although there seems to be a couple hens. I think my frizzle...

    I checked my last egg. I reviewed my weights and found it to be light on my final weight, and the air cell was huge when I candled it. I did an eggtopsy and confirmed mid incubation fetal demise. So here are my final hatch totals: Easter eggers 23/35 set; 23/31 fertile (74%) The...

    I did shipped on their sides all last year without a problem. This year I've been getting some pretty beat up eggs in. My first batch of shipped died halfway through incubation because of really loose air cells. So I am going to have to switch to incubating upright on the really hammered ones I...
