I misread the first part of this to say, "The first person to see the chicks will follow them around..."Also did you know that the first person that the chicks see they will follow them around like they will do to the mama?

That’s too bad about your shipped eggs. From everything I’ve read it’s such a gamble. Hopefully the new ones work outCan’t wait to hear about the hatches happening next week! Mine are on day 10 and I added 5 eggs from a farm today that I suspect are fertile just for fun and because so many of the shipped eggs were infertile. I cut an egg carton in half and tied string to each side coming out the vent hole so that I can “rock” the eggs without opening the incubator during lockdown for my main eggs. Not sure it will work.![]()
I REALLY wanted some 55 Flowery hens this year. I received 6 55 Flowery eggs. Out of those, four were infertile. One quit and one is bouncing around looking great in his or her egg.That’s too bad about your shipped eggs. From everything I’ve read it’s such a gamble. Hopefully the new ones work out![]()
I step out onto the back deck, and pitch it as far and as hard as I can into the cow pasture. ***splat*** So sad.What do you guys do with your quitters? I thought about putting in the trash but worried about smell. I don’t want to crack them open. I ended up throwing my quitter egg into the woods.![]()
Yes I heard a splat too last night.I step out onto the back deck, and pitch it as far and as hard as I can into the cow pasture. ***splat*** So sad.
perfect! Thats the sign of a fertile egg! lets make sure that it doesnt quit! I think that egg is DEFINITELY gonna hatch!Day 4 - development in all 14 shipped eggs! Only hard one to see was the maran but that link helped see the spot where development occurring. Saw the heart beating in two eggs so clearly. Amazing!
