It could be that one is already drawn down. My first one in my silkie hatch actually was internally pipped at the end of day 17 and externally pipped day 18.
And pray for time to gather them all up??? I'd be opening the doors and yelling "run for your lives!!"
There is no "too late" unless they are actually hatching....lolYeah I was wondering about that. A few beaks were suspiciously close to the air cells. Hopefully I didn't wait to long to go into lockdown..
Gotchya.Lmao I just meant for them to have time to get into position since I turn them so much lol..
What? Sorry, but I get confused very easily these days...
from what little I know about Silkies, those look like quality birds.My silkies were finally able to get out in the run today. They are loving it! See my pretty little silkies:
Oh they are gorgeous!!! I bet they are just loving the outdoors lol.My silkies were finally able to get out in the run today. They are loving it! See my pretty little silkies:
They are beautiful birds from @RubyNala97 's birds. 10 weeks now. And while you are hanging around I have a meds question for you ma'am. What do you know about calcium drench? It's originally for goats, but can it be used for chickens in cases of egg bound? I had what I could only conclude an egg bound hen and went to TSC to see about getting the liquid calcium that is recommended and all they had was different type of calcium for IV and this calcium drench for goats. Kinda sounded like nutri drench with calcium??from what little I know about Silkies, those look like quality birds.
