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

[livhatcher]

Every online hatchery is sold out of silkies, except, maybe cackle hatchery, and they won't pre-sex them for me  

Have you tried Magnolia in Florida?

just keep an eye on it, whats humidity at? is there any condensation on the viewing window?

it'll still die, just out of exhaustion if not drowning

of course

congrats!

hope it passes quickly

precisely, they tire quickly enough

I'm afraid I don't know what the humidity is. My crazy ducklings knocked over the hygrometer/thermometer. I haven't noticed any.

We'll see how effective this one is; plenty of folks rave about them.

Only direct cost was the peanut butter.
Would have taken 10 min. max if the 1st soldering iron I grabbed had worked.

Going to make one soon I hope!

just keep an eye on the pip, the membrane will turn yellow then brown if humidity is too low

My one problem is that the membrane on the egg is not yet exposed.
