Ok guys...its day 19 for the last 4 silkie eggs i have in the bator which all look to have well developed chicks inside at this stage. The bator unfortunately also has 6 buff laced polish eggs which are at day 16 today. This means the BLP are being exposed to high humidity from day 16-21 instead of from days 18-21 so hopefully that wont do them too much harm. I have kept the humidity overall in the 40-50% range throughout much of the first 18 days for the silkies and first 15 days for the BLP.
Hatch day is theoretically monday for the silkies and thurs for the BLP. Cross your fingers guys..i only managed to hatch out 2/11 of the previous silkie eggs. (having said that only 5 of them developed chicks inside them) So 10 good eggs and less than 5 days to go...lets see how we do!
