"Springing in the Chicks" 2016 April Hatch-a-Long Hosted by Mike & Sally

Ok guys. Watch out for cracked eggs. I started incubating 3 days ago and there was a terrible smell today. Cracked one leaked out and stunk it up. I quickly took the eggs out and laid them on a towel then cleaned up. Smells better and eggs in the incubator again.

I did a quick candle to see if there were any more cracked and I SEE DEVELOPMENT in most!!!

The very reason that I candle before putting them in the bator. The tiny cracks that your eye can miss glow and you can see and paint them with polish if you still want to incubate them. I had 2 out of 9 coturnix quail eggs that were cracked and painted hatch this last time.

  Oh, pick something up. You know you want to.

  I hope the two hatch! 

  Good luck with the eggs and your husband. 

   That's a lot of chickens! 

   

  Good luck with the hatch. I'm glad the class is enjoying it.

Wonderful!

   

  Amazing, glad you saw her move in time.

  

  Great, good luck with the remaining eggs.

Oh I so want to. I just might. They have Speckled Sussex and Wyandottes.

I am so excited! Tomorrow I set my SFH eggs. I got them on Friday but I am hatching by the moon dates so I have been turning them everytime I turn the eggs in the bator that were set on last Wednesday (at five in the morning to hit the timing right). That reminds me it is time to heat some water to add to the bator.

So we should all set more eggs tomorrow?? We definitely don't want to miss out on an auspicious hatching cycle!!
