February Hatch-A-Long

[PioneerChicks]

people say a hatching chick can drown if it gets kicked in the wrong position. that is why I put down the rope. if there is no slope at lockdown I would hate to set that egg wrong side down.

What do you mean by rope? Pictures? Interesting

Yes, (From a hatching your own eggs book). power out.

@gimmie birdies

I really appreciate sharing the photos of your incubator and the aircell up diagram, I'm learning a lot in a fast manner here...

I've got a baby!! I thought she was Khaki, but now that she's drying I'm not sure if she's Khaki or Fawn. It'll be more obvious once she's fully fluffed.

(No, I don't know that she's female, either, but she's a she until proven otherwise )

Well don't be so jealous yet! Just got a call from Meyer that they may not be shipping out due to the weather. I will know tomorrow. I ordered 2 jubilee orpingtons pullets for myself. Added the other chicks to spread out the $75 shipping fee (express to Hawaii). They won't have more of the Jubilees until OCTOBER!

Well, that's a bummer, i hope I don't get the same call!!!

They just confirmed they will not be shipping chicks out this week, not sure about eggs. It is for the best, I really do not NEED more chickens and best for the littles not to travel under these circumstances.
Gives me room to keep a few more of the silkies I am currently hatching instead!
