[Attack Chicken]

Yesterday was day 12 and I candled them again. I lost one BLW. The others look wonderful! The Mille Fleur OEGBs and doing great! It bring the total to:


0/1 CW
3/5 for SLW
2/5 for BLW
0/5 Wheaton OEGBs
0/5 Spangled OEGBs
5/5 Mille Fluer OEGBs

The 10 eggs are doing good. The chicks would stop moving so I could get a picture for my poster!Ugh

It looks like they will be very active chicks when they are born. Toay is day 13! So its getting closer

Update:Well today is day 17 and tomorrow the turner is coming out!

I'm so excited about these. It seems like I've been waiting for years on these eggs to hatch!!!!

This might make you feel better

I put 31 serama eggs in and only 5.....yes 5! are developing, 5 out of 31! sucks! but hey, least something looks promising!

Hope your others hatch for you and you get some chicks to cuddle!

Sorry about your hatch

I'm hoping my 2 month old chick will kind of bond with these little ones as they get older. Everyday I take her in there and she keeps peeping.. Like their talking but I can't hear anything.

Today at 6:00pm just turned day 18! I'm taking the turner out tomorrow just before 5 pm. I candled the 10 that were left and all are doing so well! The Mille Fleur OEGBs are dark as night! I'm so excited!!! Someone slap me!

Here are couple pics that turned out ok.
These two are the Mille Fleurs

I just got a humidity gauge and put it in there and it is reading 50% is that good or bad?The turner is out today and I had to reset the temp because without the turner in there the temp went down a few degrees. It is day 19 now and I'm not going to touch it unless I have to. Any advice would be great!

We face the kindred battle of stabilizing temps in the LG still air. Don't consider this an expert opinion...I've read a bunch and know what's work for me...I'd try to get at least 60% humidity.

I stack sponges in the top left of my LG and use a syringe to squirt water through the small air hole onto the sponge to increase the humidity. It works great.

Best of luck on your hatch!!

Thanks! The first batch I hatched I didn't even have a humidity gauge

I have the rings in the bottem filled and a piece of wet towel in there to.
