I now have 8 babies running around, eight pips and 12 more eggs that look promising. It is just day 20! I believe the humidity is running way too high with them hatching so fast and the last one out has quite a bit of egg sack to absorb yet. The humidity has spiked up to 87% so I have opened both red vent plugs. I will watch very carefully so I don't shrink wrap the pipped eggs! This is almost a constant sit by the bator to make sure nothing gets too out of whack!
I am nervous but so happy to see my little babies are popping out and look so nice!
I had to grab out five of the first ones and put into the brooder. They are all fluffed and have started investigating their food and water already! I had my DH help and I just reached in through one of the clear windows and grabbed and handed off to him to put down in the brooder right away. I had it going at 95+ degrees so they never noticed much difference!
