    Duck egg pip too smal?!

    My two ducks got picked off by a fox 28 days ago. I had some eggs so I put them in an incubator and one has already pipped! It happened over 12 hours ago and no progress. I would not be worried but the pip is so so so small I am worried that it is not getting any oxygen. Here is a photo and...

    HELP Chick Not Absorbing Veins and Yolk

    I found this chick pipped under the broody hen 26 hours ago. His beak was not at the pip location so I picked the egg up to investigate and the membrane was dry, there was no movement, and I didn’t hear any pips. I placed him in the incubator for a few hours while I did some research. I read...

    Hen didn’t lay on 22 day old eggs over night

    Hi, so my hen hatched a baby chick 2 days ago. Last night she didn’t lay on the eggs left. Will they be ok now that she’s on them again today or did I lose them? One is pipped and I can hear some chirping but the rest are still whole with no pip. Thanks!

    Humidity

    Hello, one of my chicks started to pip today and my humidity indicator says it’s at 84%….. I don’t know if this is too high or if it’s even correct. Any insight?

    Help! Eggs are overdue

    Hello! It’s a long one so buckle up. My husband and I are hobby chicken owners, we have a small flock and one of our chesire blues suddenly went very bloody (rare, I know)! A friend had fertile cream crested legbar eggs so we set 5 under her (she has since laid 3 of her own which we have left...

    Upside down pipping?

    hi! I’m on day 21 with 6 silkies, 3 pipped earlier today and are chirping and moving, the other 3 are still rocking but no pips. 2 of the 3 pips are facing downwards, is this okay? They're within the air sac, just facing the floor of the incubator, I can’t get any good pics.

    Chick won’t pip

    Hey all. I have a batch of French black copper marans in the incubator. Out of 12, I pulled 4 at 2 weeks. Today and yesterday 7 have hatched and the last one is working very hard on it. The last is having trouble I fear though. I can hear it chirping through the egg and feel it jerking around. I...

    Hen kicked pipped egg

    Hello! My broody left her nest for a romp and snack, so I went to check the eggs (day 19) and saw one had pipped! Heard some peeps too, very cute. But when she got back in the nest, she basically kicked the poor thing and it rolled over. And then she scooped it back under her. I expect hens...

    Day 21 - Alive, but no internal pip

    I’d put it down to temperature fluctuations but I had an egg that was placed next to it hatch late into day 20! So I’m a bit shocked to see its sibling is showing signs of life (I did a very quick candle) but no signs of an internal pip. What’s your suggestions please? Temps are 37.5 with...

    Internal Pip?

    Does anyone know if this is an internal pip? The duckling has been quite lively and moving his egg around the incubator and then we saw this, is it an internal pip or just where he’s been pushing against it? p.s the hole in the egg is so it doesn’t suffocate

    Is this an Internal pip?

    Does anyone know if this is an internal pip at the bottom of the air sack? (Ignore the small ventilation hole in the egg, we made it so it wouldn’t suffocate)

    Urgent! Day 29 no pipping

    So it's day 29...no rocking, no pipping, nothing. The second day of incubation the plug came out so they cooled and we started again on day 3. Could this mean the eggs will just take longer to hatch? Or have my baby duckies died?

    Warning for all Hatchers!!!

    At the end of yesterday, Day 21, I candled all of my eggs. I found two out of 13 that I could see movement in and were definitely still alive. Well, something in me told me to leave the other eggs in there. And I am glad I did, this morning my mom called me into the kitchen yelling, “you have a...
