Hands on hatching and help

[jenniferlamar70]

Unless they internally pip before day 18, I wouldn't lock down any earlier. I candled mine early day 17 and late day 17 to be sure.

Ok I'll be sure to candle on day 17..

Hey guys I got a bottle waterer this time with a chick nipple. How do I show the new hatchings how to drink from it? I've only ever had the basins. Thanks.

Also for anyone that checks in the morning. I have 2 eggs that I've seen move around. They are both dark. One green and one brown. Also really thick. neither have an external pip. They were both due today. If they haven't pipped by tomorrow should I make a safety hole?

Did the new hatchlings figure out that bottle yet Jen?
I haven't tried those yet I decided to 'save $' and hand feed/water a set of twins chicks(assumed they would die after some reading&video searches). To my surprise,we ended up taking turns for over two weeks(every two hours day&night)they finally caught-on themselves. Lived over 4weeks. Exact visual copies of one another! They where poisoned though&left us.
Two or 3of our hens lay a lot of double Yonkers. Can't find a valid explanation for it yet...
(probably the green ooze seeping up thru the sewer drains j/k,,TMNT fan)
Hear ya on those green eggs,my olive eggs are very ruff to candle! I'd start helping by noon if they aren't out, if your positive it's time. Weigh your pros&cons then commit&chip or get in the car&leave it be.

Let us know how they are doing.
Good luck

Time to watch the cockerals crow! Wahooo!
