Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

[Overoberyl]

Well I locked down 12 full NJ eggs on Saturday around noon and NOTHING since. I'm really getting worried. The temp is fine and humidity is at 66% - should I just hold out???

Have you candled them to see if they are still alive?

I've been watching and drooling. I really love those Bielefelders. Beautiful birds but not for that price.

To candle I would. I open mine several times during lockdown and have no issues.

I always float test mine after hatch date. Has saved several chicks from being trashed

Took one out to candle it and while I was looking it peeped at me! The air pocked looked really large. Should I just wait some more?? My bantams usually hatch early, I am not used to waiting so long

Only took out ONE.

The problem with GFF's auctions is they never post pictures of the actual bird(s) you are getting. That Tolbunt auction has a picture of a hen on it but you aren't getting a hen.

And I have to ask. What is up with some of those shipping charges on there? For the ones who frequent that site, you know what I mean? $80 to ship juvies??
