Day 25...heart broken. No movement visable to the eye. No pipping! I think I'll candle to see if I see any sign of life. If not, I'm going to gently crack one and see if it's alive. C-Section on a chick..Lord help me!

still sorry !!! When you open the egg pip into the large end (the air sac) with a small needle, make the hole a little bigger with a pair of tweasers. You will be able to see if the chick is alive or not !! Keep us updated !!

Not good news. We broke into all 11 eggs. 2 out of 11 were duds, nothing but yolk. 7 had the beginnings of life, maybe a week or a week and a half formed. 2 had chicks but they seem to have died at about 14 or 18 days. No survivors.

Thanks for all the support. Hopefully my next attempt at hatching will go better.
