Egg rolling around 6 days early?

[Blooming chicks]

Tracyrene--Me too! I just want them to hatch and be safe. I have 2 eggs from my Rouen that was taken by a fox last week--so they are kind of important to me. The rest are my favorite--Welsh Harlequins. This is so nerve racking for a first timer.

I have a pip!! It happened somewhere between 11:30pm and 5am. So 6 days of wiggling! The other 4 are still rocking. The pipper is loudly chirping! Yay! Anything on yours?? Good luck on you Rouens and others! I have no idea what mine are!

I had 3 ducks hatch on day 23 their all fine 1 had pipped at the wrong end and had to be helped probably because I was still turning them. Another lady had the same thing not sure if it's something to do with the warmer weather?

This is so good to know! Thanks for the reply. I dont have any pipping yet, but will post an update as soon as I see something.​

Just put them on lockdown and up the humidity and they will be ok I only set 3 eggs and they all hatched. They are 2 weeks old now and really healthy so I dont think the early hatch did them any harm. Good luck

If you talk to them, they will start to cheep back to you soon (no kidding). I always encourage mine out when they are near to hatching.......we don't have any near neighbours, so I am not likely to be committed (I hope)
