I just watched a strong little Bobwhite hatch... a day early!

Two more in there, due very soon...
 
Well, I had 3 blue bantam orpingtons hatch and the fourth was upside down in the shell. I tried to get it out when I realized it was still alive but I could not get it out quick enough because I was trying to be careful and not make it bleed. It was perfect. One of the other three was not, it was very deformed. Its beak was very crossed and the side of it's head was dented in an there was no eye on that side. I had to put it down. It was a real fighter too. But it could not have lived like that. I took pics but have to get them uploaded. The two remaining ones are under a broody. I swapped the babies for the duck eggs she was on. I would rather them have a real mom to show them the way. I put the duck eggs into an extra incubator to see how they do. I will post pics as soon as I can.

Im on day 25 for 2 gray call duck eggs, they have pipped through the air sac. Call Ducks are very hard to hatch, so if there is no external pip by morning I will make a pip so they can breath. They have round heads and short beaks so many die after pipping the air sac.
