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

[BantyChooks]

Update:
I couldn't see through the monitor because the power went out at our house for 3 hours. Luckily it only got down to 84, but it may have killed the hatching chicks. I do not hear chirping, but the temp is rising. We left early for the chickens and will be getting home about three hours earlier. Hopefully both chicks make it.

Dan's eggs went down to 50 and he got a 70%ish hatch rate, I believe, and Ralphie had a 100% hatch rate with eggs left on the top of the bator for a while at 75* temps... They should be fine.

Yeah, though the three week old chicks are nearly as big as they are.

I just got home and checked on my hatching egg and it hasn't moved or chirped in a while. Could that be normal?

I've cancelled my internet, and will be back in about two weeks. I will pop in, and plan on doing one cup of coffee for all daily.

Hurry back.....you'll be greatly missed while you're gone.
