Diary & Notes ~ Air Cell Detatched SHIPPED Chicken Eggs for incubation and hatching

[familypendragon]

The one that looked mostly ok is gasping and unimproved. I am trying to feed her to get her energy up

As it gasping, its developing an air pocket on its back. Its dying

2nd one is fading too. I tried stimulating her with warm wet towels etc. She is just lethargic and starting to gasp

I wrapped her in more warm damp towels and put her back in the bator. I took the healthy one out and put him in a warmer with his only other surviving hatch mates from my own eggs. I think he is a roo as he has a comb already. #2 is still chirping now and then.... so maybe she'll still pull through

The only thing I can think of that might help her is dribbling a little sugar water over her beak. Hopefully that will give her a bit more energy and that's all she needs.

Sorry all, I've no idea why this came out so dark. White hen in the back: broody #1. Brown hen in front... broody #2
I need more eggs!

I wish I could send some DHL

I just received 2 shipments that were supposed to be delivered at the end of the month.I have 24 Black Copper Marans, 12 Brown Leghorns and 12 Light Sussex.

I will set them in your name on Tuesday and hope they are OK hatching on their own.

If I set them now, they will hatch while I am in the Philippines.

I am up to 2 broodies now. I thought I was done with spring broodiness. This weather is throwing everyone off.
