My Hatching Journey: the Adventures of a Complete Newbie

[BYC910]

Candle results 3/12!!!!!

11/12 live and nice veins, #12 is a clear.... But I left it in, cuz one can never be to sure.

On 3+ of them... I SAW IT MOVE... No joke!!! 2 other people did too, and I wasn't holding the egg (had it on a stand thing) so I wasn't shaking it!!

It was moving back and forth slightly, shifting the veins as it went, and getting darker and lighter.. That was so amazing... One of Jace's moved, and the other has good veins.... Ohh, I lost track of how many moved, and I suspect if I had more time I woulda seen close to all of them move!!

Oh oh oh oh oh this is fantastic!!!!

Where are you going to put 200 baby chicks if all of them hatch, before you are able to sell them? You must have quite the brooder.

 

[BantyChooks]

I still can't believe I saw the embryos move.

Oh, and where are you going to put 200 baby chicks if all of them hatch, before you are able to sell them?

You must have a HUGE brooder!!

Lots of little ones. or build a bigger one only need to brood for a few days going either to try a flea market day or take them all or almost all to auction. There is a sale every Saturday . Didn't sale as many at once but I did sale two hundred last spring .auction sales have their draw backs . we don't no sale anything. and don't bid on our own birds.so what ever they bring they sale for . I'm not raising show birds. think about what they sale for at TSC I can better selling day old to week chicks. than growing them out .

I guess there is really nothing else you can do with 200 chicks...

Wait till you see the pip zip and hatch ! you will be so glued to the Incubator .It will be imposable to drag you away

, It is all very exciting but the seven day candle and the hatch are the best part . fourteen day eggs are cool if they kick and move but you really have to wait a long time sometimes to see it . that first candle at seven days when they wink at you and then disappear. you go wow look what I've made possible. you didn't do it you set the stage for it . but sill it's so cool to be part of it .
