Valley and blue scale, day 21...

[amaurer]

This evening will mark day 21. I stopped turning the eggs this morning, and will pop the humidity up this afternoon.

Sooo what else should i do or look for?

Myself, I would have a brooder set up about now.... And be watching for pips thru the window, knowing the fuzzy butts are coming!!

Oh, right, going to set up the brooder tonight, in fact - went out at lunch to buy supplies.

 

[Fat Daddy]

Never seems to fail, I get 1 or 2 that hatch 24 to 36hrs earlier than the rest.... Bill

And a winch and mud cleats...

Still nothing............................

 

[Fat Daddy]

You should start see'in pips anytime, maybe one or two hatching. If your temps were right, tonight and in the morning your bator could look more like a quail "popcorn" maker.... Good luck , Bill

Still nothing as of this morning. Today is Day 23.


Getting nervous, sigh. Temps have been 99.5 - have a good thermostat-controlled lamp on it. Humidity has been more difficult, I have it too high for the middle weeks, but fixed it a week ago and the eggs candled properly throughout.

Fingers crossed.

Small signs of pipping on 3 of 19 eggs at 4:50pm..................
