January Hatch-a-long 2018

Could be, if it's turned by now, that would be an early hatch. Probably more likely it is starting to wriggle around into position for hatch.
thanks there were two that had the beak in the air sell and was moving it but one just had its beak sitting in the air cell
 
i have both of my chicks-pippa and jess in the brooder can you tell if you have a rooster this early when jess was hatching pippa was pecking her in the eye and walking on her neck and know when she is in the brooder if i move jess to one part of the brooder pippa will go running as fast has she can to stand next to her
 
I think I’m having some firtility issues :hmm
Before setting the eggs, almost every egg was firtile that I used for cooking. In the eggs in the incubator ended up being 5/14 firtility.... not good. And also, now all the eggs I crack open for cooking are unfirtile. I wonder what is going on!? :tongue
This is my first ever hatch and I was hoping for good hatch rates! My roo is young, not quite a year, and he is as healthy as a horse. I have witnessed him “doing the do” many times recently, so they should be firtile. Ugh.:mad:

I have had this happen to me before. I was having so many fertile eggs while cooking I decided to try and hatch and only 2/13 were fertile. I then waited a little and got a much better hatch rate 9/12

So frustrating! I am planning on selling the chicks, but it might be harder if I only have a couple of chicks.
Well, we will have to see.
I will probably hatch more in the spring. It is so addicting!
