I posted a few days ago about eggs that I had to take from our broody hen. She got spooked by a opossum and would go back to them. We have them in our incubator but of all the things in the world to happen, we don't know what day we are on!
When we took them we figured there was only a day or two left but we were WRONG!!!
We have 2 eggs that the possum didn't get and to make the story even crazier the eggs were from 2 different hens laid at 2 different times!!! They look to be about a week apart!!! I have strange chickens. I candled the eggs last night and we have BIG Beautiful Veins and lots of baby chick in both eggs with lots of movement.
I have never incubated eggs so we are new at that part, though not new to chickens at all. Our friend at the local feed and seed store has answered some questions, he has been a huge help, though since I am not sure what day we are on, how in creation do I know when to increase humidity and do the preparations for hatching? I have the eggs in the incubator, on their side in believe it or not, a deviled egg serving dish to keep them from rolling into each other.
HELP!
