So today has been up and down I had 1 complete zipper quit on me, and another come out, then quit, and another with wry neck that I’m nursing now. Iv had 10 others break out. And still waiting on some more. My neighbors eggs are the ones giving us trouble, she just had a wry neck the other day hatch under her broody as well. I’m guessing it’s a health thing with her hens?


Also my other batch is weird too. I have never been so questionable about a hatch before, has anyone else had juat an over all not great feeling about a hatch, and also just had poor hatches? This is my first time with this many issues

Brand new to hatching. Set 29 eggs on May 1. Sitting on May 20 with 21 left. Itching to have pips or zippers or hatchers.

I just had an awful quail hatch with shipped eggs.

I’m waiting for ducks still too. I’ll be glad when they’re out of my incubator so I have room for my eggs.
