IA (incubators anonymous) September Hatches?

[Jules929]

The BCM is a noisy little bugger, maybe she'll coax the others into action!

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

Thanks! Can't wait to see your pics next week!!

My husband just text, there are 4 chicks running around now and 1 more almost out! So I have 2 Bantam Ameraucanas (Both looked to be Wheaten), a 2 LF Ameraucanas (I can't wait to see which color they are)! I got 1 Black, 1 Blue, and 2 Lavenders last hatch and I think they are ALLLLLL cockerels.

Stalled. No activity from the other eggs. The Ameriflower is still just hanging out, while the BCM chick is circling it, peeping in encouragement!

I can't quite tell from the picture, but it looks like it might be malpositioned. Feet over head maybe?

Possibly. The beak is to the right, head is upright. But that is all I can say for certain. It's at 23 hours, still peeping and moving, but doesn't seem to be able to turn any more. Ugh. Does that mean I need to assist?
Edit: humidity has been steady @ 59-63% through lockdown.

I probably would, it's zipped pretty far all you should have to do it pop that cap off. You can at least see what's going on then. I would have coconut oil or neosporin/bacitracin and a q-tip ready if you decide to assist in case you need to moisten the membrane. You could make a thread and ask, just to be safe!

[Jules929]

I was just watching it. It is still munching/chewing. And I read over the article on assisting again.

Hopefully someone answers soon!
