Thank you so much! The 2 eggs that I am worried about have a crack in the shell and I can see their beaks, but they haven't done anything different for the past 15 hours. And they don't talk very often, but when they do it is loud and frantic.
Count me in pls last year I have entered but my name wasent put on the list! I will set 24 eggs and will be all mixed breed, Orpington,European bold necked, and some polish bantam. Thank you
Welcome to all the new participants! It is great to see international hatchers joining!! Have a great day everyone!
Lovely work. When I can't sleep, I often read. I find if I draw it has the opposite effect and I just stay up all night, but reading tends to help me relax. Yay!
Question - is there a setting somewhere to make it put photos/smilies in where the cursor is, not at the top of the page? Most annoying to drag them down, especially with big photos on the screen. Am I missing something?
MONDAY 5 PM noticed external pip TUESDAY DAY 20 9AM STILL RESTING, hole slightly larger but chick is NOT zipping! 2 PM TUES. CHICK IS ALREADY OUT! missed the last quick zipping! Silky on the left, two CCL hatched at the same time! ITS IMORTANT TO NOTE: THIS CHICK TOOK WELL OVER 24 hours to hatch! and absolutely normal!
As long as you can see em, hear em they should be ok. Especially if you are sure they are breathing , can see the beak. They can take over 24 hrs from Pip to Zip. You will have to use some discretion here When to assist? Assisting a chick should be your LAST RESORT PLEASE READ the following ARTICLE BEFORE you try to assist a chick!
