2/2 BA's, and 7/10 Rhodebars(3 girls and 4 boys).

We ran lower and moister this time. Last time we ran high and dry. We also candled a lot more.
So, now I guess we'll have to collect more Rhodebar eggs and run a high/dry hatch to see if it was the method used or the stock that lowered our hatch rate.





@E1 else,

Great pic of the difference between the girls and the boys! Just adorable.

What were the incubator settings you used this time compared with the settings you used in the previous hatch?

SC would consider that purple...lol

This is shrink wrapped:

How flippin cute! The little chipmunk stripes are just adorable.

Personally, I dont think what we have seen as shrink wrapped is really the cause of death. I think its the result, instead. I believe once they die, the membrane stops being pliable, and constricts around the dead chick. Not the reverse. But that's just my theory.
Congrats on the bunch of new babies!!

Owl. The long filaments make for silent flight.

Very cool.

Missed your quote, but sorry about the game! I'll post a video in a bit of the little munsters running around in a minute.

Those are absolutely adorable!! I hope I have some of them tomorrow. When I checked on them at 2 this afternoon, in about half, maybe more, the air cells had started to draw down in them. I have been instructed by everyone NOT TO TOUCH them anymore!! Lol. So I am restraining my hands, by force if necessary, til well after they've pipped. Then I will assist if neccesary. I will be bat**** crazy by the time this is over. Wait... I already am bat**** crazy

I'll be craziER then.

I'd be sitting on my hands, too! Man. . . Good luck. Hope you have all your fingernails by the time this is over. Waiting is the worst!

Guano crazy! Here, it's guano crazy! lol.....lol

Best thing to do is go to bed.

Seriously, I am a born meddler. Now that I have good incubators I set my eggs at midnight so that they hatch before I wake up. That helps me keep meddling to a minimum.

Good advice, next time I will set them late.

It's like having a present that you can't unwrap, you have to wait for it to unwrap it self with no help from you :/

If you sleep the time will seem to go by faster............

 

[meganhundley]

Talking to y'all keeps me occupied and wastes time so I don't go in there and start opening the lid and messing with them. Y'all are my anti-meddling therapy

That's true but I slept late this morning so I can't go to sleep yet. And my husband is up messing with his new gun that he just got today and my kids are playing video games and yelling at the tv, lol
