MARCH 2021 HATCH-A-LONG 🌷🌸🌼

I had so many pipps and they are now rolled all over the place with 2 chicks flopping around.
Should I cut this off chick 2 or leave it for now? I am afraid to open the bator with so many pipps going on now.

My little shrink wrapped peep is putting on weight. Slow to start and very worrying but he is a fighter. Hope yours is too

Thank you I have 2 assists and both are seem to be doing good

And then there were three. Day 15 now, no shipped eggs remain. Still hopeful for these guys though and looking forward to hatching more eggs next month.

Fingers crossed these hatch for you!

Yep. It dried up and fell off. Cleaning this incubator is going to be a stinky job lol

I woke up to 5 more pita chicks this morning! So I have 7/11 hatched. I see 2 more pips getting rolled around in the incubator so as soon as these 5 look dry enough I am going to move them to the brooder. I can’t imagine having anywhere close to 22 chicks in there at once.

I have three eggs left out of the 11 pita that went into lockdown. I decided to quickly remove the egg shells and look for bottom pips since the chicks really knocked the eggs around. I picked one up and right away heard a chirp so put it back. It must be internally pipped. The second egg is one of the ones with a saddled air cell and it has not done anything. I am not sure if it is alive. The third was pipped on the bottom so quickly turned it around and closed the incubator. I feel good about 2 of the 3. If I end up with 10/11 which would be 10/16 shipped, that is great for my first ever incubation and with shipped eggs. I really like this Nuture Right 360.
