    Early Lockdown

    So I found a nest of eggs hidden in our coop a couple weeks ago and the temperature here is hot enough to where they were incubating the whole time. They’re in an actual store bought incubator now, but all of the eggs are on different days of development. I also don’t know exactly what day they...

    Just hatched duckling flopping around and can't bend leg

    So my ducklings have started to hatch in an incubation that was rife with issues, shipped eggs coming to a 10,000 ft elevation, multiple half day power outages, multiple wrong end pips. Out of the initial 17 viable eggs I started with, I was whittled down to 11 by lockdown. 5 have hatched so...

    Genetics questions boggling my mind!!!

    :he I am a novice to genetics, but trying to make some sense of this. I have a goose (Miss Lemon) who came from a white Sebastopol goose and a Pomeranian Saddleback gander. Miss Lemon mated with a lavender Sebastopol gander (Onslow). If Saddleback falls into the gene category of pied (Sp or sp)...

    Scattered hatch date--can't stop turning eggs

    So a while ago I posted a thread about 6 eggs that I took from a broody hen that I didn't trust. OF the 6, 5 were fertile and they are all doing well. But my family decided that since we are using such a huge incubator, they wanted to add 12 more eggs. And then 3 more. And then 7 turkeys eggs...

    Is this chick dead inside of egg?

    I'm having a horrible time trying to hatch. Seems like 1 out of every 4 eggs will hatch. I have a couple white leghorn/golden wyandotte eggs. The first one hatched right at 21 days, we are at 23 days on the other egg now and I'm pretty sure it's dead. I don't want to cull it too early but it was...

    (Duck Eggs) Can anyone tell me if these are still living or not?

    Hi, New to incubation, I have 5 eggs, I've candled them all and 2 are moving by themselves but the other 3 don't seem to be. Just wondering if anyone can tell me if they are still alive or not as I've read that if you don't spot and remove dead eggs, they can explode. Thanks :)

    Advice on hatching eggs?

    I have 9 chicken eggs in my incubator right now. They were just put in maybe four hours ago. I am seeking advice on how to increase my hatch rate as this incubator isn’t the greatest one out there. 1: I heard that you shouldn’t turn the eggs in the first 24 hours. Is this true? 2: My...

    Button Quail in Nurture right 360 - Advice

    I'm using the Nurture right 360 to hatch some button quail eggs. I just put them in yesterday but I was looking at the bottom today and thought, what if they're feet can slip through those holes? I know they're legs are especially fragile. Should I open up the bator and cover it with something...

    Alive or nah?

    How long do you give eggs to hatch? 🤔 On April 6th, I found a secret nest under one of our mowers. There were nine eggs that were "good", I candled them & saw something in most of them... so I put them in our incubator. Fast forward to April 26th. I hadn't forgot about the eggs (I've been...

    Leghorn Crosses

    Hey all, I have a white leghorn rooster now and am excited to try hatching out eggs. I’m curious on what crosses would be best. My first thought was to try rhode island reds. This makes golden comet or something alike? Would the chicks be sexlinked? Also, I’ve read that black australorp crossed...

    Day 29 silver apple yard eggs. Day 28 could hear tapping/pecking and seen egg movement. Today absolutely nothing and had a temp drop last night.

    Have 3 silver apple yard eggs incubating, pretty sure one is gone but don't want to be wrong. The other two had movement (tiny egg wiggles) and tapping/pecking. Today is day 29 and I hear and see nothing, we also endured a temp drop last night to 96.1 I'm going nuts over here! I've had lots of...

    Wrong Hatch date?

    This is my first time ever attempting to hatch my own eggs! 🐣 I recently Read somewhere on here that when you first place your eggs in the incubator, if placed in the evening you won’t count day 1 until the next day, is that correct? I placed My Eggs March 26th at around 7pm and calculated my...

    This is My first time hatching Chicks 🐣 and I recently come across a post that states You don’t count day 1 of incubation until the next day if the eggs where placed in the evening. I placed My eggs March 26th at around 7pm and counted 21 days from that which is April 16th (today) So would that...

    Day 21 no pips?

    This is my first ever hatch, only one fertile chick egg out of 4. I’m not seeing any Pips yet or hearing any chirping. The chick did seem to be very active as it has turned the egg itself almost completely around with all the wiggling inside the day prior. I am doing dry incubation so no...
