August 2016 Hatch-A-Long

[Cerise1924]

Day 18. I have 4 rockers and I heard a few little cheeps so YaY for internal pips! Tomorrow is hatch day for the little Seramas. I also received my replacement eggs today and picked up an additional 12 bresse as well so another 3 weeks of pins and needles.

Good luck with your Serama hatch! Hope you will post pics.

Good luck with your eggs! I also got new eggs this morning. I keep saying I'm not hatching anymore but just can't stop!

I know the feeling. I'm down to one incubator now and I'm going to pack the other one up and put t in the attic so I'm not tempted.

I would say less tempted. I took mine apart because I was done (last month). But then decided to use a broody. Now I am still tempted to get it out.

I just keep telling myself it will be too cold soon. Someone might have to yell at me if I join the September hatch.

I set 4 marans and 7 easter eggers 2 days ago.

52 eggs this time most of them are black sex link and a few mix breeds. The other chicks are doing great! Anyone else hatching eggs for September hatch along?

Good luck with your Serama hatch! Hope you will post pics.

Thank you. I will post pic's if the hatch proceeds to external pips. The air cells on these are looking pretty F'*-ed up. So I think I'll need all the luck I can get.

Anyone have tips on assisting the hatch of really funky air cells? I candled yesterday morning and from what little I could tell they all seemed to be properly positioned.

If the air cells are f×-ed up try hatching them in a egg carton so the air cell will be in the right spot when they hatch. That's what I did with the few I had and they hatched fine

Woke up in the middle of the night and found that one little peachick is unzipping. So happy!

I have no idea if the other four eggs have any hope, but it is barely day 27, so no one is late yet.
