Is that the position it was in or did you pull the head out from under the wing? He's not in the normal head under wing, beak up position.

This was the position he was in. Is there anything I could have done?

No. There's very little that can be done prior to pipping.

Oh yes, I saw that. No thanks, no desire to try it.

Oh, Amy look, I now have a silkie chick. Father was a self-blue/lavender OEGB, mom is a silkie.

How cute! What kind of coloring do you expect her to have?

Beats me! Eggs came from Ravyn's girls. We weren't sure if it was full self-blue OEGB or if a silkie laid it till it hatched. It's a pretty blue, and it's back is much darker, almost like its wearing a cape. Lol I'll probably keep it and see how it feathers in.

Culled 10 eggs between 2 incubators tonight. Officially down to 2 Bourbon Red Turkey eggs now. Both that I suspected had quit, did....probably very early. 3 Welsh Harlequin Duck eggs were clear. 2 Lavender Orpingtons were blood ringed and 1 was clear. 2 Crested Polish were blood ringed. I got the Lavender Orps and the Polish from the same person. I'm a little concerned with all of the blood ringed from hers. The dozen Golden Cuckoo Marans I got from her all look great! Everything else is looking real good. Still have 11 Delaware in the hatcher with no signs of pipping yet. I'm on Day 2 with the Sebastapol Goose Eggs.

It has been 7 years since I hatched eggs. All of the eggs I currently have incubating were shipped. I will be happy when I get established flocks and can incubate my own eggs. On a side note, I'm going to expand to quail next month!
