earthquake and chick died!!

[muans]

These eggs are pretty mottled to see through, but its possible they have parished. Just in case you might finish off the cycle just in case some are still alive.

yep i am still not giving up and i am raising humidity..ill keep you guys updated

Vibrations can cause death and if the chick doesn't die, they have a higher chance if developing a mutation or something wrong. They use vibration testing in labs sometimes

this is what i've heard from our ancestors vibration can cause death to the deelopinb chick

last night there was an earthquake at 5.6 magnitude and today when i candle the eggs all have died i guess no moving at all..is it true that sound waves or vibration can kill chick inside the egg?

Awww I’m sorry I hope they are still alive

There is powerful energy in earthquakes, I will be curious to know how the hatch turns out!

I'm just curious what is your ancestry?

No real reason but you have brought it up a few times. I've never heard the thing about quakes but don't really live in a quake prone area. My family was Scottish and we do have a bunch of weird traditions ourself.

my incubator temperature range is between 99.8-101f humidity levels are 37-40

Are you using calibrated testing equipment like a thermometer? What bator are you using?

Have you ever had a successful hatch of any kind in that incubator? Has anyone else successfully incubated eggs from the same flock?

I've had all kinds of havoc take place and yet chicks still hatch..

There are MANY causes of hatch failure including parent nutrition, how eggs were handled before setting, etc.. Are they from your flock, or shipped? Are they being turned?

Living in California and having experienced many a quake in addition to being an avid hatcher AND having purchased chicks and duckling from hatcheries IN California.. I have a very difficult time believing that even one that magnitude would cause total hatch failure.. but not power outages or other things of major concern like them falling completely off the shelf.. which HAS happened to a member and still gotten decent hatch.. There IS more to this story than just the earthquake! If you like.. we can help you discern WHERE the issue may lie.

Noting.. as heart breaking as failed hatches can be.. these are embryos we are discussing and not chicks yet, technically speaking.

Happy hatching!

my ancestors were the great great MIZO .we're a small tribe settling in a hilly region in India and my ancestors were the tribe that the Bristish could not ruled over..and they were very fond of exploring nature
