I am offically a new D'anver momma. Sadly, due to incubator malfunction and my own noobie errors all my first eggs didnt make it and I was really crushed. I'll have to try for some more Porcelain eggs eventually. But until then... My mothers day hatch a long chicks. I got 6 out of 30 eggs...

I can finally join in on the hatching fun! My eggs set on the 25th started to hatch today! I had my first pip yesterday and this morning was actually STARTLED when I turned the bator around to check the back for the pipped egg and there was a live chick jumping around! Wooot! We have two...

Wooot! I have cheeping and peeping coming from eggs! Due day 21 tomorrow. Here's hoping!!!!

The little one didnt make it. Not surprised. Sad. So the first 12 all didnt make it. I candled the other bunch, 11 of them due the 15/16. All 11 still alive. Hope everyone else is having better luck and enjoying all those new babies. I cannot wait to see pictures! :)

Thanks Yinepu! The paper towel tip. Im going to do that, that is exactly right. Its a brinsea alright. Thank you again.

Me and my mother went ahead and helped the one egg that was piping. After opening the air cell we saw that it was papery dry and some was stuck to a wing. My humidity was up 50-63%. He is fully developed and was nearly fully absorbed. He is now sitting in the shell laying in the bator. Not sure...

I think I see one TINY little whole in just 1 egg. I dont think... I mean its really there. Hard to believe it when im so worried none will make it out. :( My humidity is 55, should I turn it up more?

How do you know if they are alive or not without checking them during lock-down? It seems everyone is hearing something or seeing something right on time and mine are not doing anything. I'm worried none will hatch from these 6. If something is wrong or off about my lock-down I need to know...

Ahhh I'm so jealous! Mine are due to hatch today but ive not heard a thing or seen anything! This is crazy! Is everyone on day 21 or a little more? Less? Should I worry!?

Alright ive got the Humidity up to 60% now. I really hope these hatch :(

I feel worried that my lock down is wrong... But Its not, I've read and re-read everything about it. The first ones (6) went into lock down on wen. morning early. I stopped the turner, they went from 38-40% Humidity to 49-50% and still at 99 Degrees. This is correct right? I'm suppose to just...

I candled again. day 12 This time it was to recheck ?'s and clears and pull them out. This is the worst part so far for me. Out of 12 of the first ones we have only 4 left and 2 that are questionable, very questionable. I'll recheck again on day 17 right before lockdown when im taking out the...

I have a lock down question on staggered hatches. In my mothersday hatch a long incubator I have 12 eggs (Down to 6-7) that are to be put in lock down on the 9th. But, I have another set (started with 18 down to 11) to be on lock down only 5 days later... My question is. Will the lock down...

This is really off topic, but this thread is fairly active and since we are all here for hatching babies... I thought I would ask a question about chickies. My 3 (nearly 4) week old OEGB chicks are terrified of the dark... or something? Its hot today, in the high 80's. When Its hot I turn off...

Yinepu - You could always crack it open and check for fertility if they arnt growing at all. I think at least you will see signs of it or not... Is that how it works? The bullseye method?

Out of 30 eggs only 12 are growing. I've lost a couple even though they were indeed growing. My younger eggs I have 11/18 growing. 4 Blue quail, 4 Quail, 2 MF/Por and 1 Silver quail. (day 6) This is my day 10 candling for my first shippped eggs, Out of 12 - 3 Porcelain Clear since day 1...

Who else's eggs are on day 7 today? Just trying to see who else is "Due" at the same time as I am.

Day 7 for my first 12 D'anver eggs :) 9 look like they are developing! Three... not so sure. I have 6 Millie Fleur and 3 Porcelain growing and im excited! Next week ill candle the other 18 (Blue quail, Quail, Silver quail, and more mille and porcelain! Here is one of my eggs at day 7. ( There...

BBS is Blue / Black / Splash abreveations :) A lot of people breed their B/B/S together. *I think... *

What is the humidity % That is generally used? Can I lower it after having it at 55% for a week... or will that hurt the eggs? I have been reading about lower humidity around 40-47% instead of 55% and that being better for the air cell and if its higher it makes the chick too big for the egg. (...
