INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

My Brinsea is being difficult and not turning some of the eggs again -_- I told the people eggsitting to just keep adjusting them till they turn, but it's really frustrating! You'd think for the $$$ it would do better

Have you tried calling them? I hear they have a cooperative customer service dept.; they may have a simple fix

10 little fluff balls moved to the brooder! They are so cute. I'll figure out how to load pictures later. I'm technically working right now.

Question, I've mostly gotten 2 or 3 day old chicks from the feed stores - they already had the food and water figured out. My day old silkies that I got, I dipped 2 chicks beaks in water and the rest figured it out. I've dipped 3 of these chicks beaks and they seem to like the water, but don't go back for more and none of the other chicks are investigating. Do I have to dip all their beaks? Or as they adjust to being in the brooder they will figure it out?

Thanks!!

I would recommend dipping al of their beaks, just to be safe. Lucky you! I am still waiting for a pip! Some have internally piped though! I can hear them chirp periodically.

They should get the hint from the others. They should be good for a couple days either way.

Who else here has the RCOM?

I have an rcom. The kingsuro max 20. It came with a humidity pump that I removed for my second hatch, much easier without it. I like mine,but hate the viewing window. It like magnify a everything.

Darn, I was hoping someone had one like mine so I could verify that I installed the white air fins correctly.

Thanks for the help! I'll maybe move my "office" out to where the babies are and keep an eye on them.

Which one do you have? Search the entire incubating forum for R-com. I found several threads about specific models. I was able to find threads about my Little Giants. Good luck!!
