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

[Pensmaster]

NN x GNH has just hatched, but seems to still be a little bit attached to the shell (it drags behind him a bit when he moves). Heading to the front of the thread because I think I remember that being there, but any thoughts? Inside of shell looks great, he seems otherwise fine, can't see his belly to tell what his naval looks like.

(The Marans hatched as well - beyond vigorous. Photos after I deal with the NN.)

Nice on the Marans. Any NN yet?

Great news, I don't know how she was hiding in the smaller coop, but my hen was inside when I got home so I missed her last night. There is no way in or out of the run unless I open it so she was hiding somewhere between hens which is highly unusual for her since she is low man.. I am happy

Awesome news. That's great.

Well, by the time I got the scissors clean and got the betadine, he took care of it himself - he's fine, no bleeding. I was just being nervous, I think. Pics to follow...

Okay, Marans #2 is spunky. All 3 chirping and wandering around surfing over the tops of the other eggs.
