    First time hatching from my own flock

    3rd time incubating but these are eggs from my own birds. The first two times were with shipped eggs and hatch rate was not great but not zero. Now I can finally compare with eggs that are not pre-scrambled. I expect most of these eggs to hatch aside from any blanks (I suspect a few to be...

    Egg Development (not a question)

    Cold eggs

    Hello! I have a hen that has been sitting and was due a week from today. I came home from work to discover her off her nest and her eggs cold. How long can eggs go cold this far into developing? I'm hoping they can be salvaged. :hit
