Silkie & (maybe) Serama Hatch-A-Long

[Dan2005]

Yay!

Can I have number 19 please ?

Of course! Any name suggestion?

Sounds fine to me! They really aren’t all that different from the rest; just tiny!

Ok, great

How does Popcorn sound?

Her eggs will land exactly where she wants them to

I'm guessing it's a twist on Annie Oakley?

Yes

I had to add a little water, as the humidity had dropped to 28% yesterday morning...(Is a drop like that dangerous?).

Well. As I opened the lid I thought I might as well just quickly candle the silkie eggs. Yes, I am very impatient

Anyways...six out of the ten silkie eggs definitely had very strong veining

To be honest, I had not even hoped for that many to develop, as it is still winter and they were shipped...let's just hope some Serama develop as well

Is there a name theme?

Is there a name theme?

Not really no
Just anything that will fit for a Silkie or a Serama

Just saw the thead. So glad you decided to do a hatch-along. It definitely breaks up the monotony of waiting.

I have better luck with dry hatches for that reason. https://blog.meyerhatchery.com/2024/12/the-dry-incubation-method/

Yes, the wait is killing me...

Please pick an egg

Can I still use the dry incubation if I added water originally?

I know it's too early to tell, but if you get any white silkies you should name one q-tip
