    Helping chick out of egg shell

    When do you guys decide to interfere with a chick hatching? I have one that pipped last night and hasn’t hatched yet. I know this is normal but it hasn’t been chirping or moving like all it’s siblings did. I’m afraid it’s week or something. I can see the beak moving but not doing anything.

    Cheap but incomplete HHD/Triocottage 12-egg incubator

    So I managed to pick up one of those cheap 12-egg incubators (sold under lots of different brand names, or none at all) -- just like this one: And I bought it for a song, which is great, but it's somewhat incomplete, which is not so great, but possibly not a big problem. It's easier to list...

    Quail

    Quail. We actually wanted quail first. But as things evolve and happen, quail hadn't. We got fertile hatching quail eggs as a gift. Shipped in the mail. We were so over joked and excited. When I pulled the tiny carton from the box the little eggs were so cold. Of course it's winter. My heart...

    Duck eggs

    10 little duck eggs waiting to hatch. In lockdown. Someone recommended glass gems or stones to better regulate heat. I have a large glass mug and three shot glasses. They also are holding water for humidity. As always the incubator was full cleansed after last use. Trying to watch the temp &...
