MissDeb, I was doing a search on BCMs in AK, and your site came up. Your dogs are adorable! The rescue pages just break my heart.

Do you have BCM chicks available? Or will you have them eventually?

Donna, this is where those hatching eggs are coming from. Let me know....what you think.

Well my first casualty!

He/she was most of the way pipped out of the shell but just never got there. It started yesterday afternoon but died tonight sometime.

Hiya Animal lover!

Thank you so much for your kind comments on the "kids".


I should have some here sometime shortly. I was supposed to have a hatch today or tomorrow but it's not looking good
for those guys. So far I have two out of 7

My humidity is at 60% is that too low?

I went ahead and opened up the last two eggs and where the airsac is, the white membrane was sunk down about half
way down and when I opened up the membrane there was nothing but fluid and some yellow stuff. Does anyone know
what might have caused this?

Good news is I have 3 new little ones, but I'm wondering what happened differently this time around.

I'd like to know, because I had a 18-day egg like that... I pulled it before putting it in the hatcher because the airsac was on the side of the egg. The membrane was solid pure white. The chick had quit at about day 15.

I wonder if they realized that they spelled the term "Dam" as "darn"...

There was a link at one time that had everything that could go wrong on it and what the causes were. Can I find it now? Heck no!
