December Hatch-A-Long 2014

[Purpletie3]

Day 18 or 19 depending on set date for my Serama eggs, two internal pips! One of said internal pips is Egg #5, who has a really weird air cell- saddle shaped, I'd think it'd be. I am anticipating an assisted with bated breath, but fingers crossed they manage on their own! Here are the photos of the egg through development. Day 0, before setting. I didn't notice the aircell deformity during candling Day 7, I managed to blind myself with the candler so despite not seeing everything I'd like to see, I let it stay. It was not as clearly alive as the others. Day 14, and wow was I happy I'd let it stay! They were developing nicely but now their aircell trouble was very obvious Despite this alarming development, at candling today I saw lots of movement against the membrane, and what appeared to be a little beak poking through! I will be keeping a very close eye on this little one. Guess it is time to head on to the January hatchalong with this batch! I hope you are all having a wonderful new year's

Good luck! Happy New Year!

I believe it is the same egg and the poster showed the progression of growth over the first 14 days.

Are chicks are all doing really well and off to their new homes today. I was really surprised at the demand for chicks right now. Within 20 minutes of posting them for sale I had three different buyers!


When they were younger. The white chicks are a mix of BR roo and RIR hen. The white chicks will look like her in a few more weeks. The black ones are BR roo (only roo we have that is mature) and Australorp.

I have three eggs left in the bator! Not a great rate really, but I will be happy if I get even just one chick. I found one internal pip last night when I set them up for lockdown! I'm so anxious now!

Well I have 4 eggs that I put in lockdown tonight. They are the ones I realized the night of the 13th day that the turner has not worked from day 1. We will see if there is any chance of them hatching.
