Hatching winter chicks.

I moved the last 3 with the 10 from the second batch that started lock down this morning. Didnt notice this until I heard peeping when I set it down... always one of them in my hatches

Looks like a 'wrong end' pip....give it more time to zip than a 'thru the air cell pip'.

I think I only had to help one out due to my stupidity and kept opening up the incubator to check on it.

Dead eggs or chicks is a bit different.
Do you breed rabbits?
No death near birth there?

Dead egg sorry I am not on here much. We hatched one out and two more pipping as I type. My daughter went to bed thinking none of hers would make it but one is peeping and pipped. Looks like we should have over %50 hatch rate on a -1°F night. Yes they are in our laundry room so they are safe and warm.
