Czoellner has wiggling and no pips. Keeping fingers and toes crossed! The neighbor up the road gave them more eggs—into the bator they go…
Sally said contests to focus on are: Decorated Egg Celebrity Look alike Flapper contest Easter Spring Photo Contest Mike said to enter the jelly Bean contest
Jbher had a bloody naval. Chick was treated and chick is fine!
ChickiMomma15 is worried that none will hatch!
Doctor Pammie has a weeping egg, or is it a pip with ooze?
ChickenFox had an egg pip while holding it. Luckily it was not dropped.
Pyxis won the Friday contest and gets 6 mo of Golden feather membership!
MontanaDolphin has oddly hatching Seramas—Egg not absorbing correctly and weird postures. We hope they will be ok! TJChickens said to put Betadyne on the naval to disinfect. They will look odd until they finish absorbing the yolk. Let them recover.
Susiederkins had one hatch with the yolk still attached! Carefully put it into a tea cup to let it absorb the yolk. Sally said to look up Mushy Chick Disease
Cynthia12 said good night
Book has 4 eggs going in the incubator from Hell!
Michaelf said Good Morning!
ImpulsiveFarmer has a broody with Turkey eggs under it!
Foxballeyfarm had a heat spike but the chicks look behind in development. The cat gave the alert that the Brooder mates and escaped and were getting into his food and water!
Gerbilsontoast has a sink hole and must fill it! This will cut into Bator watching, which Is a good thing!
Amyfitz100 has chicks with leg issues.
Sally announced another mini contest for tonight at 10PM Eastern time.
Lubmypets wanted to know how long it takes to hard boil Duck eggs. LDeBona said to steam them for 15 min. for med and no more than 20 for hard.
