Two olive egger babies from the bator that was unplugged for 12 hours!! The other fluffy butt is still in the bator waiting for her *hopefully* sister to hatch.
I have three!!! The first one to pip died in the shell. Anyone know what would cause that? I feel terrible :( but I have 2 olive eggers and one lemon cuckoo Orpington so far!!
Well the egg that piped first last night is still not out . You guys remember the bator that was unplugged for like 12 hours? Had one of the olive eggers hatch while we were at the fair and another is piped!! Althougher have 3 piped (that I can see. One I feel like is piped on the underside of...
I have large fowl, brinseas and yes it did drop in one brinsea. The other it was spot on the whole time. Humidity was around 40% before lockdown and has been hard to maintain during lockdown. But between 55%-80%. And I know that's no good but it's been a challenge. Sponges both troughs filled ugh!

Yes I'm hopeful. I only have one light brown egg in that bator the rest are f1 olive Rogers so the shell is daaark, can't see a thing, which is driving me nuts.
Nevermind my incubation issues, I also heard the Dominican got hit hard. We were supposed to be there around this time this year but...
ok guys give it to me straight. I told my son to unplug a hear lamp and instead of unplugging that he unplugged my incubator I can't type enough sad faces. It was unplugged for nearly 14 hours and got down to 78*. I plugged it back in but their probably gone right? I had almost all of my olive...
And this is why I love this group, you guys understand. I almost cried, and still wanna kick myself.
I have 12 set too and it's sooo frustrating!! Beautiful color but pain to see anything. I'm wondering if I buy a expensive ovascope if it would make a difference?
Ugh! When I was candling to find air sacs and check development on day 8 I dropped an $8 egg. It was the only red cuckoo Orpington egg in that batch and it was developing beautifully. I am almost sick!!!
