So Sorry Lynzi - that is SO heartbreaking ...I gave it up myself ...so glad TT is taking it over for me ....
Maybe you can get some eggs locally & not get shipped one s ? Pharm has Silkies ...Have silkies will travel ?

I'm actually contemplating that since I'll be picking up a trio of silkies in the Albany area soon. I just have to figure out when so I can get searching for someone with hatching eggs either in that area or along the way somewhere.

he is hanging out. He lives in a coop with a couple of other roosters and about 20 hens. Much older boys live in the tree's. They roost 25 to 30 feet up in a tree. Can't get pictures of that

My girls have picked up laying - almost two dozen today, counting a few frozens. Still no sign of the mystery dog grr. I am setting up my game cam this weekend so I can see where it's coming from and what it looks like.

It seems to come every day. Chickens are still safe, but I need to know where this dog is coming from - I do have two cats out there to worry about also..

and yes, I do still have my derp stuff!!

Hope it turns out ok for ya. The liner they used was a foamish mesh one. I honestly don't know how they hatch when on side. I know normally when I hatch in my carton the pip is just by air cell normally.

When using egg cartons I cut them up. Pulled this back out of the trash this aint how the eggs was after hatch but probably close. I cut the sides down to almost lvl with the joining in middle of carton then I cut the tips off there. This way aircell is above the carton just about all around it does rest on one side alittle with these smaller eggs.

I like to cut the bottom of the cells out to, so no moisture collects in them.

Aaaand then there were none...wth!?!?! I can't believe this, just went upstairs to check on the chick and it stopped breathing. I give up! The woman I got these eggs from offered to send me more but the devastation of not having these hatches work out is really starting to get to me.

I am sorry for your trouble.
