I have eggs in the bator too but they are only of there 5th day...I would get some towels ready...just in case the power does go out you can warp the bator with towels to insulate it and keep most of the heat and humidity in.Got eggs in lock down and the lights are flickering I hope the power doesn't go out
There are several kinds and that's what confused me, but in my case I noticed she started losing her balance and flapping her wings that went on for a few days and then one leg stuck out to the side and she couldn't get up anymore. Her eyes were fine....she ate and drank anything I gave her....she seemed in good health otherwise, her breathing was normal, she had no lesions, just couldn't stand up....I had already isolated her and kept her there for 3-4 days with hands on care. After doing a lot of reading and consulting some people on this blog I totally expected a diagnosis of gout. I was still unbelieving when the vet said a form of Mareks but the autopsy confirmed it. That's when I learned being vaccinated was no guarantee against getting Mareks and she could have a form that did not affect the rest of the flock. I took her to the vets Jan 8th...and the rest of the flock is still in excellent health. She was one that I did not raise from a chick got her at about 4 months old, but came from a reputable hatchery locally that others recommended and used. The other pullet I got from them is doing fine and laying regularly. Still scratching my head over it....doesn't make sense.
whatcha got about to pop?
