Thread formerly known as Hatch day is today

I have to run to have my phone looked at, it sucks. But wanted to show you some pics of my goose egg air cells. I am not sure if I need to up the humidity (at around 67% now) or lower it. Here are some pics of the 4 different eggs

Goose #2 also died. I opened it up further than the other, to be sure. It's beak was pointed at the little end of the egg, I think they both tried to pip in the wrong spot and died. Now I'm worried about the calls in the incubator with the wonky air cells. I'm going to candle everyone tonight and mark the one's with bad air cells so I can keep a close eye on them. They are on day 21 or 22, I can't remember which day I set them for sure. I'm locking them down Sunday night. The quail should hatch around the same time, and then I'm putting the incubator away until spring.

So Sorry Julie.......

I have so many with bad air cells. I am watching them so carefully. I have all of the eggs that were shipped to me, including my chicken eggs sitting all upright at an angle. I hope they make it. Did you see my goose air cells? What do you think? They ALL have the detached air cells.

SM- I really don't know. Mine always had big air cells.
Chickencrazy, Welcome! And thanks. How are your eggs doing? I do that with my quail sometimes, I'll throw a few in the next night and then forget they weren't all set together.

Thanks for the welcome. The eggs are still rocking, so far so good. I'm going to start writing the date I put them in the incubator on the egg from now on. I have my humidity at 74% right now, so hopefully all will go well like my last hatch and I'll have some little peepers.

oh no julie

darn..

HI SM!!!!
that is so strange!! ive never seen that.
good luck with the hatching i hope it all goes as planed.

IU, i cant hatch yet because husband called me a hoarder.... WHICH I AM NOT!!!! so i have to prove to him that i cant get rid of some before adding...
so i am going to sale 6 of my RIR pullets.. and maybe a few Barred rocks.. they havent started to lay yet so a friend told me i could possably get 15$ for them if i hit the market right.
our Big R is having chick days soon so maybe i can sell soon..

OH No JULIE!!!! That sucks SO BAD!

HEY PEEPS: ChickenCrazy12 is who I got my Ancona boy from! Woo Hoo!!

I just put my sebbies in and I want to candle. Is that wrong? LOL.

One more thing: Someone give me a GOOD reason why I shouldn't pre order a mating pair right now. I need a good legitimate reason. Because hearing of Julie bad luck makes me worry about my bad luck.

EVELLE: You need to MOVE girl. Somewheres warmer!
