November Hatch-a-long...

[Beccazon]

--


I have never seen anyone get twins to successfully hatch, it would be nice to see it in this hatch a long

I have a candling addiction so, I am intrigued to report that I candled last night, day 5, and there are clearly two yolks, 2 embryos starting and 2 seperate sets of veining. Idk if I am worried or excited. Don't really want to continue them if they are most likely to die

My babies started hatching almost 2 days early. (I just realized i should probably be posting in octobers hatch along but i'm already here...)

I got 17/20
8 barred rock, 6 Langshan or mutts, 2 rir, and 1 speckled sussex.

Of the 3 that died, one had the aircell at the wrong end. I attempted to assist i made the internal pip for it. It had its feet over it's head. It never absorbed the bloodveins. I did get it out of the shell after the yolk was absorbed, but it still died.

The other 2 didn't pip internally. I think one died the day before hatch.

Compared to the last 2 batches yeah, this one was down right spectacular. Lost the whole last one with the hurricane I had no power for 4 days. and the one before that I lost a dozen after lockdown due to high humidity earlier on. :/

That is one of my twins in the egg. I know both can survive if the egg is large enough, I've seen several people hatch them but they did need assistance coming out. I didn't mean to put a double yolker in, but now I don't want to stop them because they're thriving. They both move and wiggle when I candle the egg.

Good luck with the twins...

Can I join? I have seven live in the bator. Day 5 all are veiny. Half runner, half Pekin, KC, or half Rouen. Need to stop the candling obsession.

Thanks. I have 29 other eggs as well they're all due to hatch on Halloween. This is my first incubation ever. I plan on doing another one in November depending on how well this one does.

Couple days after Halloween for me...
