EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

I am one that pulls my sleeve over my hand to open public doors and stuff yet dont mind if my critter poop gets on my hands tell me I aint screwed up!


I do the same and I discretely drop the paper towel I use to open the filthy bathroom door in a corner if there is no basket their for it..

I have been in those bathrooms with no paper towels and waited 20 minutes for someone to come in so I can escape without touching the door...
 
@Sally SunshineMy thoughts and prayers are with you tonight and tomorrow as you undergo surgery. Lord, may the Doctors and surgical staff have wisdom, clarity of thought, precision and your guidance. Be with the staff in recover too. Encourage her and her family and provide in clear ways on the things they know and don't know will need done. Provide encouragement, and use it as a time to bring them closer to you. I pray for the best outcome beyond even predicted possibility. I am also praying for rapid progress in her recovery. May you guide and protect her. I also continue to lift up HarmonyAnn for a resolution and healing so this stress may be lifted. As I pray for Sally I am also remembering Meltel. Be at work in and for her too. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine be all glory, honor, and praise. In you may they find peace.
Amen


Amen

Everyone, meet Premie! She was the only chick to "hatch" from the lavender silkie eggs that I ordered a few weeks ago. Nobody jump down my throat, I know I broke the rules with her but I wanted to make sure she made it so please, no negativity, this isn't a usual thing that I do. She was due to hatch tomorrow which is no big deal since my eggs typically hatch early BUT, I helped her hatch....yesterday. After only 2 eggs made it to lockdown and then other egg died (I was watching them closely). I did an eggtopsy to check how far along it was. I was fully developed and yolk sack absorbed and was even pipped. Fearing for Premie, I poked an emergency pip hole and kept a close eye and ear on her. I ended up opening her shell when I thought that she might be in trouble. Blood vessels were receding and her internal pip was there but she looked like she was gasping. It took all afternoon but by evening, she was completely out of her egg with only a tiny little piece of yolk still unabsorbed. She basically laid in the incubator in the fetal position all night. I'm sure she was finishing up her development inside. This morning, I made her a little "nest" with a towel and a little container and held her upright with her little feet under her. I wish I would've taken a picture of her in it, it looked so comfy! In the past few hours, she has really come alive! She's opening her eyes and talking to me like crazy now and has found how her feet are supposed to work :) She's gonna be a mamma's girl (or boy).





Bringing new life into the world, chicks or anything else, doesn't always fit into a nice little box. You did what your gut dictated, and it worked
