Anyone hatching April 5-7 or so? ALL DONE, READY TO BE LOCKED

[snazzyboots]

i got 2 dozen shipped from 2 different sources. 1 dozen from a friend locally. one dozen arrived perfectly and one had 7 smashed. i didn't keep track as well as i should have but i don't think any of the 5 remaining hatched. this was my first hatch too so i'm sure there was a learning curve. all in all i think it went well and i had a blast.

It's a hard thing, giving birth to yourself! I have 5/11 eggs hatched so far! it's going to be a stressful weekend! It needs to hurry up bc I have BCM eggs waiting to go in next!

Hey guys so I posted earlier about this. But My little LG bator (which I haven't used in a long time. Is putting of a horrible smell. I don't remember it ever doing this in the past. I checked all the eggs and they all still look good during candling and they don't stink. Do you think it could be from the water in the bottom?and the chickie poop? I removed all the broken egg shells.

I have 13 hatched two of them took so long that they dried and shrink wrapped themselves I was able to intervene and save them both. I couldn't believe how tough that membrane became they would never been able to break out of that.

I think I am the last still with no babies. Day 22 now and I decided to open the bator and candle. The one that was certainly moving before is still moving around and has not pipped or anything yet though! I hope it happens soon. I think the other 2 are still no goes, but I am leaving them in for good measure, cold be a mistake. So heat and humidity back up and locked down again. Please hatch soon little egg, you are making your mommy insane!

Yes, Yes, Yes. I just had to change mine because it was starting to get a smell also. Now it is much better.

I had a couple get shrink wrapped also. I was surprised that its like dried super glue. Geez. I did the best I can and I hope they make it, but I am preparing myself in case they do not..... I will see tomorrow. I need to quit watching for tonight. I get overly involved....
