Is everyone busy with new chicks or what?

I am checking the incubator way too often, lots of rolling around, but still no pips! Tomorrow is day 21 and i can't wait until they get the show on the road

Still nothing here either. I've checked them every 7 or 8 minutes all day long LOL. I've notice a couple of them rocking but I haven't hear peeps yet. I usually never do till they pip, but lots of people say they hear them during lock down.
I did have a face palm moment earlier, I realized I forgot to put the anti fog on the glass. That aggravates the crap out of me, but I won't open it to do it now. The humidity is right where I want it.
I know I've been saying that I expect them late from the problems I had during this run, but I still can't help myself.
I've got 3 turkey eggs saved up so far, guess I'm going to let them build up for a couple weeks and run again to get some turkey babies.
Good luck to everybody else. I'm getting excited to see all the pics I know are coming.

 

[GR Chicks]

Hi everyone, I need some advice...I had three chicks hatch earlier today, and one of them is having difficulty it isn't able to stand on the one leg. Its hip is protruding out much further on the one side. Any suggestions???



Its too hard to see in the pic.

Could be spraddle leg. Where one leg kind of sticks out sideways. You can correct it by putting a bandaid between the legs to hold them where they need to be. Usually 3 days is enough to fix it.
Hope it's ok.

I hear peeps but no pips yet.

GR sorry about your chick. I don't have any suggestions but I hope it gets better!

 

[mortie]

Holy moly we have a pip!

I hear peeps but no pips yet.

GR sorry about your chick. I don't have any suggestions but I hope it gets better!

Thanks, I hope in a day or two it corrects itself. I have been checking other threads, and the prognosis isn't looking good if it doesn't improve in the first week.

Glad to here you have a pip.

2 pips now!
