I am hoping they are just late! One of my silkie hens keeps stealing her sister's fresh eggs and I don't think she is fully committed to her broodiness since I found her shoving the foster eggs under her sister to make room for the fresh eggs.
Anyone not have anything yet
I did candle while my girls took a quick drink and food break.
6 chicks were moving internally when candled. 4 looked okay but a tad cooler than the others. 2 looked way under developed. I threw those out.
Is there any hope? Wait a few more days? I bought bantam...
Late to the party!
I have 2 broody silkies i am using to hatch! I was given 12 fertile eggs from a friend (2 marans, the rest I'm not sure). My mama silkie has 8 under her and her 7 month old gal has 4 under her!
So far it looks like all are developing. Some at different stages!
I'm so...
