True. I did a little digging around last year when my batch of Blue Laced Red Wyandottes hatched out 2 single combs. It's normal, just not desirable.

Sorry not the greatest pic.

My cochin that went missing, I put her eggs in the incubator.

Can anyone guess about how far along they are? They very active little buggers.

I would say a week and a half, hope those babies hatch for you

so I just performed my very first eggtopsy. the egg was beginning to SMELL like gym shoes, dead hermit crabs, and sulfer as my younger sister put it. had my dad smell it, "yep, its dead alright"

it had feathers, and it was blonde. I was so sad. the beak was super soft and bendable. the feet didn't have scales, and a little of the gut was drawn. im guessing a day 15 death. today is day 18-19 so yeah.

my mom asked u sure it was dead? I said I don't know, but I guess if it smelled it was.......

now marshie is sitting on only 2 eggs. do you think its okay if she only has 2 under her when she originally had three? should I put a gold ball under her in the morning to fill the empty space?

I was messing around with a flock of columbian wyandottes last year and raised 50+ and some end up having straight combs. It was too much work to get good quality out of the birds i had so i sold all of them.
