I,can't wait till next weekend.Saturday is lockdown for goose egg number one.and Sunday I'm going to a poultry swap at a tractor supply near me.and they also have chicks at the tractor supply now.hope I don't accidentally go in the store.LOL
Next time try hamster eggs.I'll be waiting.
What? A girl can only drink so much coffee out of an incubator before it gets old having to clean the coffee stains out. Besides, the rattle snakes, penguins, and alligators were all a little too hyper. They hatched in three days, then cleaned the shells out themselves!
Quote: I got a call from this guy who kept buying chicks and after a couple of days they were all dying. This happened several times with chicks from different people. Turned out his wife was making extra strength electrolyte solution for them (she thought more was better) and they were dying of salt overload. When we figured it out on the phone he gave them plain water and they drunk like crazy there and then and no more died after that.
Good point!

Gosh, @daxigait , I hadn't thought of this, but you had a lot of different stuff in their water simultaneously - have you tried giving them plain water yet? (With or without Corid.)

Sally I've hatched 7 EEs (5 black and 2 blonde). There are four green eggs left, and five honas left. Two honas are pipped. It's just now day 21 so I think my temps were a tad warm.
I always hatch day 20 with clean hatches
Did you get pics yet?
Congrats on the babies! praying for the rest!!
My update is 41 eggs the farm chick variety of partridge Cochin rooster mating with rir hens and barred rock hens starting at 9pm tonight.
