Holly, Lisa's and Lexa's Silkie Hatching Egg Countdown

[Huny]

Another one Holly? These hatching out are SO premature, I am thinking the temp being a little low those first few days (I had it at 99 and 100 for a the first few days, trying to be too careful). I wonder if the same thing might of happened for you? The reason they are all coming out now, later?


I have 5 SLW and 3 Buffs right now. One Buff I thought looked like it's stomach was horrible is out of the egg with a clear stomach now, 6 hours later. I have a new buff in the egg that has the same problem. I am hoping I don't loose any (so far I have only lost the one that I cracked the shell two days ago). I have a few more pips too. Maybe it will be fine after all!

I hope so, that temp is about what mine stayed at and now they are incredibly late, we are on day 24 and just now getting a pip, i only have one, but it's my silkie so I'm ok with what ever I get! I thought is was supposed to be 99.5-101.5??? I think there was a curse on all of us this past hatch, it seems like every single one of us had some sort of problem or loss!

I hatch 10, but one died. And I had a surprise one under one of my hens. I thought they were all cochin eggs then I found a little silkie.
