Racheal: (Crazypetlady) I need your help. You stumped me. I thought I have silkie eggs from you from the swap. But 2 of the 3 eggs that made it to lockdwon are not silkies.
1 hatched out with orange/yellow feet legs and 4 toes.
1 hatched out looks partridge feathered legs and toes with...
Ok Elugene6 I have 7 of your eggs in the hatching tray and they all look like they have pipped through the air sac and ready to break shell.
Rachael: I have 3 Silkie Eggs going strong going into lock down tomorrow. None of the serama made it.
But on a side note the Serama eggs I got off...
Bhep: 3 Serama made it out.
Just put Eluigene6 eggs in the hatching tray yesterday. I think 6 or 8 made it to lockdown. The best yet of all the shipped eggs this month.
Yes, they are 19 days but you don't want the humidity as high as you do for the chicken eggs. They will drown. I dry hatch my serama, I find it works better. I have less die during the hatching process. I put a little water in the first day I put them in lock down just o help there egg soften...
Beth (BHep) so far I have 2 out and 1 pipped. 4 made it to lock down but so far nothing from the 4th. I am guessing serama since they are so small. Am I right.
For everyone that got eggs from me. Here is the # list on what will come out of the eggs if the post office didn't destroy them.
#1- Bantam Blue Cochin
#2- Red Old English
#3- Americana
#4- Black Tailed White Japanese
#5- Mixed Banty Pen: Silkie, Sebright, Cochin, Polish.
Ok from my 4 partners I had this month this is what I have that is developing in my bator:
Shellyga: only 2 candled but had detached air cells and quit. The others I tossed also had detached air cells
Bhep: 4 are developing
Elugene: 8 are developing
Crazypetlady (Racheal): 5 are developing and...
I sure will, Man I wish the others would have made it. The stupid Post office is so rough on eggs anymore. I tossed the last 2 eggs that were candling from Shellyga they stopped developing.
Got my last set of eggs today from Crazypetlady. Thanks for the great packing and 12 eggs. Thanks for the gifts also. The kids are fighting over them right now.
I buy Medicated chick feed for the chicks and mix thistle seed, Wheat Bran, Split Peas, Oats etc.... in it. Then I buy Layer mesh for the big birds and my game fowl eats that also. But I also mix in Bird seed, Thistle seed, Wheat bran, Oats, Split Peas, Sunflower seeds etc.... Whatever I can...
Yep, but at least 4 are growing. Only thing I can think they might be are sebrights or Serama. I know they aren't silkies cause of what you said on another thread. Lol..... Let the elimination process begin.
Just figured it out. They changed there location so I looked over them. ha Ha........ elieugene6 You had me going there for a bit. Thanks for the great packing job. You brat.....
