This batch of 10 turkey eggs, 4 were not fertilized. So of the 6 potential good ones, 2 decided to hatch on day 26.
Only one egg didn't pip yet.
Super EXCITED.
*first turkey that hatched had splayed legs. Hoping with some TLC he'll make it.
Hi all, I put this egg into a homemade incubator in the mid afternoon of 24th September. I counted 25th as day 1. Today is now day 29 and there is no internal pip. There is plenty of movement when I candled it but it just doesn’t look right. The air sac looks small and I can see it’s beak...
So I have an egg that pipped yesterday and has now started zipping. I wasn't home when it started zipping but I came home to it lying in a pool of yellow liquid. It's still alive, I can see it breathing. Anyone know what happened?
My husband and I are hatching our second batch of eggs so we are still pretty new to it. We had this chick pip and start the process of hatching last night and has been stuck at this point since 12 last night and it is now 8:30 in the morning. It has been crying and the egg has been moving, the...
Hey y’all! So I am totally new to incubating / turkey / anything to do with eggs! I have been doing a ton of research and I am somewhat educated on the basics.
So…… here’s the back story. We have a hen that laid eggs, something got her eggs. We took the last 3 and put them in the incubator. We...
My duck eggs are about 29 days old and I have checked all 12 of them and they haven’t piped yet. They are being sat on by the momma, I have candled them many times and they are alive. They are mallard or a pekin/mallard. Should I do something?
So I have 4 duck eggs! They have all internally pipped! After 12 hours of no external pips I made little air holes..I thought I saw the one getting shrink wrapped and so I tryed to help remove shell in the air sac area and now I’m just freaking out..
I have tried the tapping method as read on this forum yesterday. Still nothing. No sound or movement. Veins visible. Most others hatched the 1st and a few the 2nd. Any ideas? (Silkie Chicken eggs) Thanks!
I believe I'm on day 29 of incubation with a buff/pilgrim goose egg. Temperature is at 99 and humidity is 70 percent. I had one hatch this morning and the other hatch day before yesterday. There's two eggs left in the incubator. One I didn't have good hopes for in the first place because the air...
We were on day 19 of incubation and the night before the chick started chirping. It was always chirping but then today (day 19) after and hour or two I realized I hadn’t heard any chirping i checked the heat and humidity everything was fine. I thought maybe the chick drowned and couldn’t get...
UPDATE: The little one I was worried about is only growing more vigorous, and talkative. He/she won't seem to stop chirping or rocking around! The membrane seems to have gotten much whiter as well. :D
I've opened the incubator a couple times today, each only for a few seconds at a time---once...
I have two Ancona duck eggs that have pipped internally over 24 hours ago and nothing since. I also have one that has external pipped over 24 hours ago and nothing since. Advice?
Hi, It has been about 3 days from an internal pip and so far no external pip has been made. I didn't understand the difference of temperature between a still air incubator and a forced air, so the temperature has been a little colder than it should be.(around 98 in temp in the final hatching...
Hey everyone! I started incubating my own eggs for the first time at the beginning of the month. This morning I woke up to one of the eggs pipped on day 20!! I am so excited! Patiently but anxiously awaiting the others for signs of pipping.
I should be getting some langshan/cochin crosses and...
This is my first time incubating eggs. These are pekin ducklings.
I’ve done a ton or research. It’s day 29 and these babies have pipped last night on day 28. On one of the eggs I’ve noticed a red clot of blood, is this normal? It is not bleeding, I just see the spot and it’s making me nervous...
Hello! First time Hatcher here. I have three very healthy and very active Pekín duck eggs that are on day 24 of incubation.
I had my first internal pip about 24 hours ago. The air cell was large - about 1/3 of the egg. After waiting 24 hours and no external pip, I performed a quick candling to...
After researching pips when a chick is beginning to hatch, I didn’t understand that it can breath fine, even if you can’t see the hole. Since I was under the wrong impression, I freaked out and helped a couple chicks hatch when I didn’t need to so I’m creating this thread so people can...
