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

[Akrnaf2]

PLEASE HELP, My eggs usually start to pipe and hatch on the 18th day and now this batch is very slow they are still alive but it's day 20 and no pipes. I've been thinking the air cells look a little small. What can I do?? I can't loose this batch it's one of my bigger ones.

Wait
Don't tuch
Don't candela
Don't open the bator

just wait!

There is nothing you can do now!

Thanks, me too!!

I would like to see her stump too.
Are we talking chickens? Your heat is way too high if they are hatching that early!

Will get some soon....

I agree. Was about to type up a post asking breeds, temp, level measured, bator, etc....

Good morning. Gonna kind of take it easy today. Been out and got all the feeding done this morning. Think I'll watch the UConn women and then grill out for the football game. Chores only today but I may load up a cabinet. I don't think I told anybody but last fall I put a Barred Rock Roo over Ameracauna hens. They are now 11 weeks old and some cool looking birds. I'll try to get a pic up today.

Just popping in to say Hi Sally and Mike!

I miss you guys!

Hi Kelly, seen you got everything underway!! Thanks so much for all you do!! Bantysweets is amazing at helping!!

Chrissy's foot just came off!! Thank you Lord!!!

It came off as a nice cap, the stump is very clean cut. Bled a bit but stopped quickly, and I wrapped it up with gauze and vetwrap. No infection visible!!

It came off when I was putting her back in her pen. Somehow, my friend didn't seem as elated when I sent her a pic.... Can't imagine why...

omg

Sally, I potted up 50 tomato seedlings this morning, which means I have somewhere just over a hundred so far.

My temp stayes at 99.5-100.5, bantam chickens, I just figured they always hatched early cause of their breed?
