The baby blue orp that I hatched (helped out) after four days of being in it's shell is thriving and doing great It does have spraddle legs that I am treating if for but otherwise it's going really good. Just thought I would update everyone
Ok some pics of the Miracle chick. Here is what his shell looked like after I chipped away most of the shell. He sat in the shell for TWO more days trying to get out. He had already been trying a day before that before I started chipping away at the shell! Below the shell picture is my blue...
Ok wow I have a HUGE amazing story for you all! I have four baby orps and two that were trying remember three days ago on had pipped and it wasn't moving around or anything? Well this morning it looked dead it was still working on getting out last night so I again tried helping and every time...
Pbj the first bird I ever hatched out was a Serama and he is in with the big girls. He's such a sweet heart. But he sure does a good job protecting the girls. At least he tries to. He is the BOSS out there. Even over my huge cochin roo! Well I have FOUR babies total so far...one looks...
I got another hatch and another on the way 1/4 of the way zipped already. These eggs are LATE today is day 22 so I believe while cleaning the bator the last time I set the temp down a degree on accident. The digital was reading down to 98 and up to 99 so I THINK that could have happened. Is...
I got 2 hatches a splash or blue (can't tell yet) and a black, four eggs still working on getting out. Two look like they will for sure...not sure of the other two. Three are doing nothing at all that I can see.
Pat and Becky I sure hope your chicks all hatch! Can't wait to see pictures Mine are doing a little better although the one that was making NO progress I decided to help a little by chipping away some of the shell for him. He/she is a black and it's still alive and trying so hard. I'm not...
cth what a neat idea there! CUTE BABY! I would put some clean rocks in the water bowl and that way it won't be able to drown.
Cass you have some cute babies there! Sorry about your last one
Pbj...I hope it's all that goo is. I think I still see it trying to break out but it's not that...
Becky, let us know if any more pip! I have another chick! BUT the bad thing is it's not the one that was in the same spot and pipping. That one is STILL trying this morning but has not changed it's spot. Should I help it? It's peeping at me and it's so sad! The other chick I have is...
TWO of my chicks pipped at the BOTTOM of the shell! I am SO happy I decided (against my better judgment) to take them out of the carton or they would have died for sure. I'm taking them all out. I took 1/2 of them out and one is moving around but it's not getting anywhere at all. It just...
Ok here is the end of the hatch. This one was outta there fast! LOL He just popped right out. I was on the phone with hubby so ignore my talking. He kept calling me while I was trying to watch the hatch so I had to tell him I had to go...
Ok here are the pics and I'm still waiting on the video but will post it as soon as it's done. Miss Prissy...if your watching can you take a guess if it's blue or splash?

Congrats to your daughter PBJ! That is a great accomplishment And congrats to you Ricki on more hatches
I'm worried about my eggs...I have no more pips other than the one and only ONE live chick just begging for company. I don't want to have just one baby...the last time I tried that it...
OOO A Wheaton Marans I can't wait to see it. Congrats to both you and Ricki! Ricki do you have more pips also? I have no more pips after the two that I first got. I sure hope I get more. Has anyone else had that happen. Pips on day and more the next day? I'm day 21 today! They should be...

Omgosh I'm sitting here crying I feel like a big baby. My dad walks in (he lives with us) and he says why you crying. I said "I just seen what color the baby was and I really miss lola and lily!" (they were the reason I have these eggs...they were killed by the neighbors dog last month)...
