Ok this is going to be my last hatch...and I have been really upset about the last 3 hatches I have had.
I went into this with great hatches and hatch rates.
Now they are plumiting so bad and I am lucky to get even one to hatch!
The problem is now that when the chick pips and zips a little...the feathers get stuck to the egg!!
My humitity has been 65-70%
and 100 degrees with a forced air.
God I have one more hatch left and what am I doing wrong????????
This last hatch I had 2 sticky chicks and one that when I opened it up it had so much water and could not move its feet and was green!!!
ohhhh I am so freaking sad, I don't think I am going to be hatching anymore, I can not do it! I have killed more babies then hatched.
Why such bad luck all of a sudden?
ok, thank you all for listening!!
truly yours,
Theresa
