Today was Day 28 for my Red Bourbon turkey hen setting on a nest.
In another 10 days or so I have another turkey nest due, then 2 more after that! The last one started setting 5 days ago, and I"m planning to pen one more up this week so she can set on her new nest. Can't wait to see the little ones!!!
I have 9 hatched out of 18 with two pipping now. My blue orp eggs will be on day 20 tomorrow
I am holding my breath on those as I miscounted when I set them into the egg cartons
I need to get the candling part down. I don't recognize a problem if it exists as yet. Didn't want to throw away the eggs I had doubts on so I kept them but didn't mark them
Good luck to everyone and especially to Parsonswife, she has endured a lot lately.
I'm on day 20 and I have one pipped. It is a little phoenix. It has only zipped like 1//4 the way around, and it just hanging out. I wonder if it has dried out a bit? It has taken it 5 hours to get this far! I don't hear any other peeping, yet. (out of 28 potentially good ones).
Any way, I have some marans, cochins, americaunas, and several types of banties in this hatch. Keep ya posted tomorrow.
