I've got 5 pipped now, but no zips or chicks yet. Kinda glad I'm on my way to work, this hatch is stressing me with the low temps and slowwww chicks, hopefully I'll get home to babies!
I'm on day 17. I also have a question....Do I keep turning my eggs? When do I stop turning them? Bet you can tell this is my first time, lol. They are 3 Frizzle Cochins.
We stopped turning on day 18. Egg #5 hasn't done anything else since it pipped a small hole. Egg #6 hasn't done anything. I'm pretty sure they died. We quickly got the 4 chicks out yesterday afternoon. They were beating the snot out of each other and pecking each other's eyes. Got them in the brooder with food and water and they are doing great!
See how they are pecking each other?!
I am on day 20 and nothing yet. I sware I see the eggs wiggle and I go to show my hubby and it stops. I think I am really close to being committed...LOL. I will be satisfied if just one would hatch. Anything at this point.
