I had a day 18 hatch? just went to add the water and pull the turner and had a chick almost out. It fell out of the shell as I put it back in. I am used to day 22-25 for Giants. The same Hova 1588 incubator but this is a dry hatch, 26 % humidity. So far it is better than my last hatch at 55% day 1-18 that had mushy chicks dropping in hours or days.I am hatching Jersey Giants and Ranger/Rangers this hatch.

Thats funny, I just hatched day 18 chicks too. Went to take then outta the turner and add water and one of mine had already cracked its shell!! I dont know what in the world happened but they are happy healthy lil peepers!!

I hope I'm right lol I think the roo is the one on the right with the red comb and wattle. He's also protecting the girls like the dominant rooster...

This is my Blue Jersey Giant cock, Jersey. He weighs 15 lbs. and is 29 inches when he stands. Not the friendliest guy, surprisingly.
