Purchased and Hatched Bresse: Boy What a pain! And Leg Issue Q:

I know this is old, but I wanted to add to it because I have a weird similarity. I also have had a bad hatch with my Bresse. Of 28 eggs, I got one to hatch and there is one "maybe" that is still "cooking". But, it had the weird glue as well. The poor thing could not get out of the egg. There was a yellow-tinted translucent goo that was so very thick and sticky! I have not seen that before and am not sure if it is something specific to the Bresse. I would describe it similar to rubber cement. I took the baby out of the incubator, gave it a warm bath and put it back in to dry up. Interesting that this was also seen in another shipped Bresse egg.

Also, the eggs settled for 24 hours before incubation and I did not do a dry incubation. It was about 35-40% most of the time until hatch.
