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

[Sally Sunshine]

Yey we just hatched a baby last night! We have it in a small box under a heat lamp going to get chick starter in a little bit as it arrived earlier than I calculated!! Chick has fluffed up over night and is very loved already. Only thing is its getting noisier but has just fallen asleep. Do I keep it in here for a while or take it out to mama hen out in the coop. Its still very cold here in Alberta so not sure what is best. I do know if we keep chick in here I will need a bigger box.

I hope sumi is still on, she knows her broody gals!!

Do internal pips sometimes look like this, or is something wrong? I know I shouldn't have messed with the eggs...

I don't see an internal pip based on the pictures, but it could just be the angle.

Here's a video of an internal pip:
