Incubation Help!

If your problem is in the ankle and not just bent toes you can correct it with heavy cardboard and tape. This is also very good for correcting straddled legs.

I tried using the band aid method to straighten out the chick’s toes and it worked great! They are straight with no other leg issues.

I do have two new eggs that are due to hatch out by Monday. Both eggs pipped today, this time not at the pointy end thankfully. If the chicks do make it out successfully can I add them to the same brooder as the older chick?

Good job! and yes you can. We will sometimes add this weeks hatch with last weeks hatch with no problems.
