Crossing all my fingers and toes for you...Candled the BCM marans eggs tonight, tossed 7 of them, zero development, 3 more I think are quitters but I'll leave them in until my next candling, the other 4 look on point.
Thank you! It'll be the worst hatch I've had in 3 yrs, but I fully expected it with how filthy some of the eggs were and everything they went through the week they were in the mailCrossing all my fingers and toes for you...
It'll be my last hatch of the year, I'll be focusing on coop improvements and my garden and canning the rest of the year.
I'm hoping for the best considering... And yes, I'm done also.Thank you! It'll be the worst hatch I've had in 3 yrs, but I fully expected it with how filthy some of the eggs were and everything they went through the week they were in the mail
I'm sorry about the bad hatch. How disappointing! I know you kinda expected it but it's still discouraging after waiting 3weeksThank you!

Shipped eggs are always a gamble, but yes, I'm very disappointed! I'll candle again this weekend.
It is exhausting hatching chicks back to back, even with the help of broodies, it's like having a classroom full of kids in your backyard that won't go homeI'm hoping for the best considering... And yes, I'm done also.
I'm exhausted
Yes !! And with broodys the parents are there also and they don't get along...It is exhausting hatching chicks back to back, even with the help of broodies, it's like having a classroom full of kids in your backyard that won't go home
Expected hatch date is next Saturday, and I've heard nothing from the seller.
