January Hatch-a-long 2018

[ambe0487]

Good Heavens I’m having thing but problems with this hatch. This little bantam has a very large lump on it’s right side (not crop on left). It’s not hard but closer to a bag of liquid. Doesn’t seem to hurt to for me to touch.

My feb 4 hatch eggs I have 2 left.

@gimmie birdies I bought some for them today. Unless it is eating the bedding they haven’t needed it as they’ve only been getting flock raiser.

So I moved 5 of the eggs from under the broody into my bator. They have an extremely staggered hatch so I don’t know what to put the bator at. Currently it’s 66% humidity. I don’t know what to put it at. It’s day 22 and nothing so I don’t know if I grabbed the day21 eggs or other. Please help

@elizabethu42 you should be able to candle them and get a good idea of how far along they are.

I don't have any flash lights.

@elizabethu42 do you have a smartphone that you can down one as an app?

So found a flashlight and candled... I guess I have one day 21, one day 1, and one day 4, other two aren't fertile.
