Okay now I have 3 eggs under a broody hen (she was a early summer hatched chick), And I have the rest of my eggs still in my incubator. Wish me luck on the broody. I'm hoping if she has a few hatch she'll just adopt the rest the babies that hatch.

Someday I hope to get it like that. Have incubators full and set to hatch weekly. But I need more property so I can have my own roosters.

Yeah it does. My last try at hatching there was an egg that had a crack. It made it all the way into lock down and didn't die til after i pulled it from the shell and saw it was deformed and i culled it. I don't suggest pulling a chick from it's shell but it was a week past due.

You put nail polish on and let it dry before putting it in the incubator.

Aww, the chick in my picture has a deformed top beak. Does the nail polish really work though? N aww poor baby

YAY its soooo addicting I hate the wait from pip to zip though

I know right! I have half an incubator full of pipped eggs the other half nothing yet, but NO babies!!!

yes the nail polish really works. It seals in the egg, and out the germs. Just make sure not to over much of the egg with it because the space that has nail polish wont breath.
