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

[sumi]

That moment when you think all your eggs are too dark to candle, or think your losing your eye sight because you could see into them last week but not this week..... Only for your husband to suggest you change the batteries in your flash light!

HAHAHA, Oh the joy I just found when I realized at least 6 of my olive eggers due for next Friday had growth/veining/movement in them!!! Despite being almost 2 weeks old when they were set! WHOO HOO.

LOL

OMG! The pipped silkie just spontaneously hatched within like 20 minutes of me being away from the incubator! It looks really good and strong. I'm posting a pic. Do I leave it in? It's flopping everywhere.

Now leave it in there so it can dry off before removing it.

Hello to everybody, I have a DIY incubator that had 10 duck eggs, only one was developing, now I don't even know if that one is good. Want to change around and redo my incubator and then try to hatch more ducks.

Always calibrate thermo/hygros, read the hatching 101 and the links for ducks under the chart in the article, and I am wondering if your heating thermostat has a lot of flux? see the coolerbator link down below in my signature!
