Good I had to help two out with my last hatch they are both doing well five weeks old now. Is everyone done now or do we still have stragglers?
I have one that hatched yesterday and the one that had piped first has died I didn't help let nature take it's course I still have four eggs in the incubator one seems to have a tiny pip hole on top. I am going to wait a few days because they didn't seem to be developed at the right stage on day 18 when I locked down. Maybe it has something to do with being shipped, they were all alive and wiggling on day 18 so we will see. I had to remove the chick as it was making such a commotion in the incubator it is now under the heat, eating and drinking. Such a cute little thing. I hope it won't be a lone chick from this hatch.

i have a lone chick too, the rest were dead in shell. I dont think the lone chick will make it, still cant stand and walk, had to help it out of the shell last night, it was stuck.
