I AM SUCH A FAILURE!
Out of 82 set I locked down with 57. Removed them from the cartones and discarded another 15, so 42.
I wish I had pips those eggs yesterday! I didn't.
I had two eggs rocking and one stopped and stopped peeping, so I pipped it, but when I shined the ligtht into it I knew it wasn't moving. I finished cracking it and it was dead. too much fluid.
I pipped the other rocker and spent hours helping it out. I finally went to sleep at like 6am and woke up a little after 12. No more chickes, temp dropped to 96 and the chick was still wet. Trying to dry him out now. I pipped the others and what wasn't just scrambled was dead. I lost 7(Wellies and BCMs).
I figured I'd better pip the ones in the other bator and most were just scrambled, one was ROTTEN! UGHHHHHHHHH
I found 5 more dead (shrink wrapped) one that had drowned? How does that happen in the same bator???????? Got to the last one and it was alive, but not much hope for that one.
So all these days, 2 bators and 1 BCM chick!
I can't believe how some of the eggs looked. The yolks were so mixed in that it looked like there was someting in them, but there was nothing, just scrambled yuck! I hate the PO!
My little BCM is still trying to find his legs after all this time. Gonna have to give him a really good name, cause I wanted more BCMs for me and he's all I ended up with, so boy or girl he stays.
I'm so disappointed and depressed you just don't know.
