how old was this chick?

might just have been failure to thrive. happens in embryonic stage too!

candled on day ten and it was kicking and moving so well like the rest of them. i have 9 in lockdown out of 18 so for first incubation i think that is good for shipped eggs, plus one of my eggs from the hens outside has piped

Thats an awesome number for shipped eggs!! I think the best I had with shipped eggs was 14 out of 15 developed, 8 hatched (with assistance), 3 died after external pip and the rest died before external pip.. I've never had a number like that again! Zoomummzy was amazed I had such a great development rate!
 
i'm hoping they all hatch soon, not counting them till they do

Funny you said that because I was thinking while my babies were hatching, that for the longest time I didnt understand the meaning of that saying... well now I do! lol
 
i have read several messages were people have said that and i can understand why.
