YO GEORGIANS! :)

Day 21 of my 30 egg BO hatch. One was placed in the turner wrong end up, one had an air pocket that looked ripped down one side and 28 hatched in my homemade bator. I've done 3 hatches in it and had 24 of 25, 12 of 12 and 28 of thirty to hatch.
I also got the pasture coop out and in place today. As they went to roost tonight I got the English BO roo and seven BO hens off their regular roost and put them in the new coop. First one in didn't like it but they settled down on the roost before dark. I'll open the pop door at 7:00 AM and and the big roo can deal with the hens without Chester chasing and pecking him on the butt.



 
********QUESTION*******

Has anyone ever had a shipped egg reattach the air cell at the SMALL end of the egg? I have some Cochin eggs on day 5 or 6 and just candled.. The one in question has a perfectly reattached cell but it was down on the small end so I turned it over in the turner. But now I wonder if that's the right thing?

Anyone?
 
Oh, and I set a few MFD eggs, you know, just to check fertility.. :lau If they were to somehow ALL hatch, I'd lay an egg myself!

If NO chickens do it, how is it normal?

Ok, RoboDuck, If your not nice to me, I'm gonna tell Gam!!!

Finished up with 78 out of 81. I'll take those numbers any day of the week. Got another 87 going. Hopefully, I'll have the old #416 in working order next week and I can get serious about incubating.
