I have a different view on this, especially with the rare tolbunts.  And let me say I respect your decisions but I find sometimes Its my fault like the humidity was too low and the shell is rock hard that no chick could pip through . dont mean there is something wrong with the chick. It just wasnt incubated right or mama ate way too much calcium.  I have assisted a few times with success and no future problems with later hatches but because there can be so many reasons / things that go wrong its a very hard call to make. 


I understand your reasoning and respect that too granny and it's very true that there are many reasons on non hatchers or strugglers. I have just spotted a pip :woot
There is life in there! I have helped some at the end of hatch and they have gone on to be good chicks others I've had to cull or they passed. I will only have a look at helping though at the end if they have still not finished their zip.

York, what day are your eggs on?

Day 20

Mid morning everyone, up late no hurrying here. We got snow again last night, but thankfully not 6 inches. What we did get is wet & heavy so I'm off to clear it off my aviary net & the driveway. Gunn be a crazy day for me, so I will catch you later tonight. Hope everyone has a great day :hugs

Morning Lisa :D

That all sounds hard work!! Good day here thanks :highfive:
 
Chores are done! Wednesday is my wild day, but I'm rocking and rolling so far! I have to fill feeders in six different places (only eight total) but they had enough to wait til after speech.

Today I need to clean up the guest room to get ready for our house/farm/baby sitter and her little dog.

I've been documenting my honas with color leakage and it's looking like the yellow faces turn male at least 75% of the time. It's too early to tell on two of them (one is young, one could be a late bloomer) so it might end up 100%. That would be interesting.

Edit: adding pics of Mr. Pink Feet.
