How bout that??? Right on, huh??? Who knows, maybe it's a sign from God. I truly think...
Well the incubator I have is a hovabator 1586, It's sooooo old..... and as a matter of fact, I've got three of them. The Elementary school where my daughter goes loaned them to me, said they've got loads of them that they're not allowed to use. Way sad... anyway. It's very still air, I am...
OK, I know this "hatching time" has passed but the information on this thread has been wonderful..... I have a big question. I am truly thinking that we may have had a bum thermometer...OR worse yet... a bum heating element/hot spot. Is that possible? A HOT SPOT? We have looked @...
To those of you following my English BBS Orp egg drama... I've pitched all of the remaining eggs this evening after candling. There was nothing even closely resembling a chick there....and for the most part, I had porcelain clear eggs with only 3 "dots" that had quit at it appears day 4ish...
That is brilliant! Well, they seem to be doing a little bit of something in the egg but nothing like I think they should. I mean we're on day 11 (ish) and there's only a wee baby in about 4 of them. Some of the eggs just are clear... they'll be tossed in a few days. Some of them just have...
Oooooh thank you for the reaffirmation... I'm feeling as if I'm failing these wee babies. It makes me so sad to watch them not develop. I talk to them... I know... goofball. I turn them and ask them to grow.... I tell Smudge and Peckington (my two girls in the yard) that they'll have friends...
So, the BBS Orpingtons are at day 7 today and we candled again after hearing the support of all of you. Thanks again. 4 confirmed embryos, and 3 possibles... some have darkening yolks..... for the most part we're pacing ourselves. thanks guys.
aaggjg...... I'm so sorry about the others. I'm doing what I can for us with the BBS Orps, but as of tonight it's not looking good. I know, I know... only day 4. Oregon to California? Air sacs maybe not intact enough? Oooooh the continuing questions.... forever and ever... I'm not a...
That is just ridiculously cute.... she's just looking over her shoulder being so coy. I wanna love all over that fluff!!!! Soooo many congratulations folks. I'm really living vicariously through all of you on this thread. Having a tough night tonight with candling... early, it's early...
awaiting an answer... taking notes...and PS Brooster....I'm super sorry your Marans are quiet. I'll do a prayer and a cheer for them. Maybe a nap? I know I'm just hopeful, but yikes so sad... I would imagine the Maran eggs are too dark to see....
Taking notes.... I will be sending pictures out and asking for all the colors/sex of all as soon as they show up.... please please please be available in 22 days?? oooooh please!!! soooo beautiful
