IA (incubators anonymous) September Hatches?

[Jules929]

The guide to assisted hatching says not to panic for 30-48 hours, lol. As long as the chick doesn't pip into a vein I don't think it's really an issue. They just take longer from external pip to hatch than normal. https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/guide-to-assisted-hatching-for-all-poultry.72886/

Thanks. I did some searching. I don't want to assist, so I looked for confirmation, lol. The Ameriflower is making progress. The BCM is resting. None of the others have pipped as yet, but they are only 4 hours into day 21. Probably not going to get much sleep tonight, lol. Exciting!!!

Me either! I have one bantam out, one more fully zipped, and four pips on the LF Ameraucana eggs. Two of them are at the wrong end...The last hatch LF Ameraucana eggs did that too.

Awesome! I want to add an Ameraucana or 2 eventually.
I can hardly stand it! I wish the others would show some signs of activity, lol.

@Jules929 how exciting!! I’m going into day 12 on first set (which is 3 or 4 eggs as I had moved that rooster to a new flock to replace an old one so I set 23 figuring most were not going to be fertilized yet). I’m only candling here and there but those look good. Second set is on day 5 going into 6. That’s 16 eggs and those look good from who I checked so he’s figured it out lol And third set went in yesterday so just started turning those. Those are projects from yet another flock.

I have two little bantams running around the incubator terrorizing. One of the LF Ameraucanas is almost fully zipped!

She is resting. I can see her munching, so she isn't ready yet.

Congrats on all the hatches!
I'm just 5 days behind y'all...can't wait to see the results from our experiment.
