The syringe you pictured is 0.5 ml or 1/2 ml (ml = cc). If you want to give 0.3 ml, just fill to the 30 mark on your syringe. 30 on all three of these syringes = 0.3 ml, or 3/10 ml.:D

Thanks so much for the help. I have given her the first dose now. I guess I just wait and pray. She is eating a bit of egg. I'm going to buy some yogurt with probiotics later. Hopefully it helps. Her poop was lime green and like water yesterday. It's getting thicker now. Has more substance so hopefully a good sign.

Well as Amylynn2374 says----there is more than one way---some do it one way and some other ways. I have hatched enough to say in my opinion I do not feel I have ever hurt a chick by keeping them in the incubator for 2/3 days after hatching. Most of the time I take them all out at one time on day 22 I have had to wait till almost day 23 because of being out of town. Never seen or felt that was a problem. Some times they will be some what packed in the cabinet, yes they knock eggs around---sounds like a Pool hall at times---lol, but that has never affected my hatch.

I found one in the bottom of my incubator 11 days after it hatched---still very much alive but was happy to see food and water. When I added it to the brooder with its sibling's it was noticeably smaller, but it caught up in a couple weeks.

You can take yours out when you feel you need to, I can leave mine in till they all hatch and we all can be happy---LOL some pics of the hatcher.

That's a good ideal wish had thought of that .Do the crates have a deposit fee ?

Aww. those Silkies almost make me glad Ken reordered.

But it might work out okay after all. You-Know-Who has been back on the nest and is sitting tighter than a thistle in a kilt. So I gave up, let her keep the eggs that are under her, and I'll put half of the chicks under her when they get here. Timing will be just about perfect, so might as well. <sigh>

Nice job on the deviled eggs. Did you ever see mine?
