I read where someone referenced that seramas have a 1-2% lethal gene.. Would this be the same for all breeds of chickens?

I have eggs in the incubator and they are suppose to hatch on Friday march 22/ 2013 hope all goes well as I got some eggs from a breeder near to me that was free and I can't wait to see what I get out of 18 eggs that was given to me. I also have 2 micro Serama chickens they are about 1 month old or a little older ( no more than 2 months old ) and are very lovely birds. I can be contacted at [email protected] I live in Milton Ontario Canada. Wish everyone Happy hatching of their Serama's.

Hoping for the best hatch...! All are alive in their shells.... !
No pips yet....

Good luck to you....too...!!

I'm new to hatching serama eggs as well. Bought 14 eggs from a local breeder. Today is day 18 and I have 12 eggs that I hope will hatch with in the next few days.

. I've hatched out cochin bantam eggs and button quails and I found that misting the eggs a few times a day has worked for me. I've gotten a 90%- 100% hatch rate using a still air incubator w/ egg turner. Hopefully I'll get the same hatch rate with this batch.

I have 7 Serama eggs hatching in my Brinsea. I also have three under my Silkie hens (2 hens sharing a nest). I candled the ones in the incubator tonight, of the 7, five look good and two are maybes. This is only my second incubation. Last time I hatched three Swedish hens and one Silkie. This time I plan to candle less. So fingers are crossed,

Only 3 Serama hatched.....but they are cute as can be.....!!
The 5 polish and 4 silkie eggs.....5 silkie mixed with cochin,.... I had in with them.....all hatched....
I don't know why more serama's didn't make it.... when we opened the egg.....the rest
hadn't even broken the air sac....on day 22.|
Will keep reading and researching before hatching them again....
I was also told that Serama's don't normal live but a couple of years.... =(
