Especially if they are young dogs it is pretty common for a "split" heat. First tell tale sign was she snapped at him.

Same thing crossed my mind, but she'd never been bred before, so I wasn't sure.

   just love them!! can you sex them?  Thank you!!

SWEETS!!! AWESOMENESS!   e

this happens and there is nothing you can do so dont fret over them, just keep on trying to keep things their best, adjust humidity for those air cells, they have a good chance of hatching the longer they are growing,  sometimes those saddles look bad but they still have area in there they need.  again dont fret it does no good anyways!

Totally! e


I think I'm crazy, I am 41 minutes into the test run and I have already filled up a whole page of paper with notes....

I was told that when they start getting there feathers you can tell. The pullets are a light brown (wheaten) were the cockerels are dark. Not so much at this age. U can take a guess by there wing size.

Quote: I think you are doing great, if you feel they are getting too large add just a bit more but not crazy like.... its really hard to judge at images, videos work best for this judge.

Arrrrgggg...three cups of coffee.....and I ache all over....and still can't wake up....

J&TRanch 1/12/16 12 self blue Cochin bantams (shipped) day 3 (going to candle today to see how many are viable).... And 18 eggs arriving in the mail tomorrow @J&Tranch My shipped self blue bantam Cochins are doing good. I had to throw out a stinker and a seeper

So out of those 10 remaining, 7 are developing nicely

They're on day 7. I ended up receiving 16 shipped from GA, they looked good considering the single digit temps- only 3 saddles and none cracked. They're on day 3 today, will candle Wednesday maybe.
Saris My hatch is done 6 DIS 24 chicks outonly had to help one out of the shell when it got stuck zipping. Hooray!
TJ Believe it or not, there are two developing from this mess! I had to wash them in hot water to get all the slime off and they have saddle cells, but I'm giving them the best chance I can. Probably won't ever turn them. So, the new batch was packed a bit better and nothing was broken, but out of 8 eggs, 4 are saddle cells and 4 are completely rolling. Set them all anyways
