I GOT MY SEBASTAPOL EGGS - PIC'S!!!!!!

[Rare Feathers Farm]

This is good to know...I have my five that are due this weekend! Does that mean I should stop turning them tomorrow? Wednesday??

So, I keep resting and misting until they pip or until they hatch!? I am a nervous wreck!!! But a happy one - I really thought they were duds!!!! I know one has movement and they all look alike so hopefully they will all hatch.

 

[Rare Feathers Farm]

Um...I'm not sure if you mist them on the last three or four days, or not??

This is my first Sebbie hatch, as well--mine are due on Saturday. I have one that's a dud and the rest, I'm not sure about....so we'll see.

I would just make sure your humidity is up around 85% and don't touch them! I've had pretty good results with the Muscovy eggs doing it that way...

Good luck!

Thanks, equibling, I guess we just wait and chew our nails off, and drink gallons of coffee, and wear a path in the carpet to the bator and back......sigh!!!! I have jacked the humidity up to 86% - and I am waiting.......she said no touching, right? sigh!

LOL Yeah, NO touching! I do think I've got a path paced through the carpet from the bator to every room in the house! LOL My humidity is about 82% right now....when are yours due?

I think I'll stop turning mine tomorrow, or Thursday....

Today is day 26 - they are resting in the LG foam incubator at 98-99 degree's - 87% humidity - I was told they would start piping on the 28th day - don't know if anyone told the egg's that or not!!!!

I am trying to plant my garden - but every hour or so, I run in to check the temp's and humidity.....getting my exercise now!!!! What day are yours due to hatch?

 

[Rare Feathers Farm]

Umm...mine are due Saturday--so I guess today is day 26, too????

 

[tnkinhunting]

This is day 28th - no pips - no peeps - no honks!!!!!! They are laying there like big oval white rocks! Equibling, I pm'd MissPrissy and she said mist and rest until they pip and then don't touch or open the bator!!!!!! Humidity at 81% and temp at 99............hmmmmmmmmm

So, any excitement with your sebbies?

I am waiting here with you. When you mist them can you run a flash light over them and see if you see the gosling is moving? I never picked my eggs up. Just a flashlight to see if they were moving in there.

I am waiting her with you all too. I have one toulouse egg in the bator on day 24. I think I will stop turning this Sunday, day 27. When do you stop turning? The day when I take stop turning I dip the egg in warm water for about 30 seconds, instead of misting, then I pump up the humidity and wait.
