Tomorrow is Our first Hatch day.. we had a hen go broody, so we set 6 eggs under her to hatch and we made a homemade incubator and set 6 eggs in there. When we candled about a week ago, our Hen had 5 viable eggs.. the sixth one had nothing in it.. looked to not be fertilized. In our Incubator we only had 4 viable eggs... Crossing my fingers that we get all 9 remaining eggs to hatch... I have never hatched eggs before... but me and the kids are really excited... can't wait..

Good Luck!!! Keep Posted on there progress!!

If theres no other pips or zips in any of the other eggs id take it out and try to help it. i had one zip last night but it got stuck and coulnt push its self out. i pulled the top off. pulled its head out then put it back and let it do the rest

There are several still in there that have zipped and pipped. That's why I didn't think they should open the incubator...

Thanks Stephanie. That's what I was thinking too. I hate not being there!! I texted him back and suggested they leave it in there.
