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

Thanks Oz! Only one so far. And 6 pips. I hope we'll have a buddy for duck-duck before I go to bed later. At least 3 of the pips are from yesterday.

Hello!

Welcome to the thread!

You got another chick today?? LOL How's Ajani? (The successful assisted hatch chick, everyone)

Hey! Yes we did! It is a barnyard mix. Out of all the smashed eggs, coated in yolk it was 1 in 3 that were not smashed and it was the only one who developed. I have him in the incubator still until he gets his legs and then he will join the others. It is another amazing miracle. Its name is Ryo- Japanese for Survived. Haha we are going to run out of surviver names by the time we are done. Here it is.. cute lil fella.


You can see by it's egg, it was a tiny lil egg and the air cell took up 1/2 the space.



I hope it will do ok in with the others.

Ajani is doing great! (aside from the others pecking at his feet, one actually bleed a bit.) I think maybe its his feathers on them attracting attention. But chicks will be chicks.

LOL! Thanks, Oz, but I'm O.K. I'm just really hoping I won't have to assist. Though that being said I now have a grand total of 3 malpositions.

I'll see how the first 2 are doing when I get up tomorrow morning. They pipped yesterday afternoon (my time).

It's my first time with ducks, but I want to do it again! LOL They are so cute and duck-duck's curious! All over me when I gave him a cuddle earlier. I'll take lots of pics for you guys when the others come. They're taking their sweet time though.
