    Cracked egg, external membrane busted but internal membrane intact. What do I do.

    Hey guys, my first time incubating isn’t going well. I have a duck egg that was meant to hatch 4 days ago but didn’t. When candled there’s been no movement for 3 of those days.

    Homeschool Hatch-Along (2/23 hatch)

    Hello everyone! We are a homeschooling family that adopted 4 chickens (2 buffs, 1 sex link, 1 rhode island red) about a year ago.

    Hatching Bantams; Increase Humidity Sooner?

    Hello, I am hatching my first pure breed silkies. I’ve hatched standard crossed with silkies in the past, but never purebred. In the past, my chicks have hatched on day 18 or 19 and I’ve heard since the eggs are smaller. It takes even less time for them to fully develop and hatch. I am wondering...

    Staggered hatch question

    I started a batch of eggs about a week ago, they are silkie and silkie mixes. With winter my roosters fertility has dropped quite a bit so out of 20 eggs I only ended up with 9 developing. The rest didn’t even start. I was hoping for a bigger hatch than that so my question is could I add more...

    Incubator temperature

    I recently bought a 12 egg incubator and this will be my first time using it but the celsius on the screen keeps going from 38.0 to 37.7. I’ve had the incubator on for about 3 days and every once in a while, the incubator keeps doing that. I have two hydrometers inside and one marks 97.6 but...

    Incubating crossbred eggs! Can anyone tell us what they may hatch to look like?

    We are trying out incubating for the first time and are on day 4 of incubation with a Farm Innovators Still Air Digital Incubator as our cheap incubator used for getting the hang of the do's and don'ts of incubating. Our biggest questions, however, revolve around what these baby pullet chicks...

    Is this egg dead?

    Hello! This little guy was moving a few days ago and I went to do one last check (day 18) and he’s not looking too alive anymore. I can’t see any veins, only bloody looking spots; no movement (today, the other three eggs all moved into position and he hasn’t). Now I’m noticing the air sac is...

    Incubator calibration question

    Hi, all. I have a question regarding my Sailnovo 20 egg incubator (link below). I should honestly have read the reviews on it before I purchased it as this seems to be a common issue with this incubator but it doesn’t seem to want to get to the temperature I set it to. It reads that it has...
