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

[ladylynch]

I put iodine on it

Anyone remember what changes I said I would make for next batch? LOL

NOTE EGGS that have double sharpie air cell lines, these are just a tad loose,
But importantly note that the larger air cells DO IN FACT have the loose cells! 2,5,7,18
Not sure the images can show you, but I took a side shot to help see the size better.



Sanded, washed in bleach water solution @ 104 degree, marked air cells and numbered!
Settling them until tomorrow morning!




These weights were from the last set of 14 eggs, and 2nd image is 18 eggs in this batch! LARGER EGGS this time!

or

hmmmmm I am not sure, it could be either, I would give it a chance if your not going to sell or breed her. Keep her clean, warm, iodine and electrolytes and crumbles. Let us know how she is later!

 

[Sally Sunshine]

oh and dont let her with other chicks! they will yank it and all that could come out! keep in basket or something just dont over heat her!

 

[ladylynch]

Thank u so much

 

[Sally Sunshine]

Thank u so much

of course! another thing you can do is smell it every once and a while, if its bacteria ridden at any point it could stink a bit and u will need to cull it. Good Luck!

Also, is this the only one? and she was not assisted in any way? are the others hatching early? if they are and you have bloody navels heat is too high, recalibrate

What can I use to help her . I don't want to lose her. She hatched on the eve of lockdown. This is a pic of 12 hours since hatch. She has been in a wet paper towel in a cup. I cant get her to stay in the cup now

When I get one like that I give it a tiny drop of 10% Baytril for 2-3 days, but that's because I recently lost two to E. coli yolk sac infections. I also dip the umbilicus in chlorhexadine.

I don't believe that 2 or 3 days is sufficient usage to prevent resistant bacteria?
