Need Help Please

Just wanted to let you know a couple of my turkey eggs are chirping a little!!!

 

[judsenn]

I think I heard mine chirping too!! Either that or my mind was playing tricks on me while I was in bed last night. My incubators are in my closet, the sound was faint but I'm pretty sure I heard little peeps. I think i may go into lockdown tonight instead of tomorrow morning..shouldn't make much difference. So did all of your chicks make it out?

 

[mattmartin47]

Yep all but one. Yeah the peep I heard was very faint also but the egg are moving quite a bit though. Have yours been moving any?

 

[judsenn]

no, i haven't seen any moving, but then again they were all in an automatic turner. I officially started lockdown 2 hours ago, so now they are all laying on their side. So hopefully I see movement soon. I candled all the eggs before LD, all were wiggling around in the egg except one...it was dead. :-(

...it was fully formed but still had its egg yolk fully attached. Wish I new why the little fella gave up.
