I've just hatched my first chicks (brahmas),
6/8 hatched, 1 unfertile and 1 day 3-4 death.
2 had very dodgy airsacks but following advice on here I put the upright for lockdown. They both pipped out of the air sack and needed some intervention at the 24 hour mark. 1 only needed a little bit of shell removing and made their way out. The other needed the full hog separately removing another layer.
All 6 are flourishing today after hatching on Friday thanks to all the advice on here.
Thank you all so much!
