Yea, the one that pipped last night on the side I'm not sure about, I started to take a tiny bit of shell away for it but I saw that blood was showing so I stopped. I do have not that hatched that keeps flopping over on its back, it just came out a few minutes ago, do you know what causes that?
I have araucana eggs that I'll be trying after I get done with this hatch & their my own eggs so hopefully I've have a better hatch rate. I was really wanting some frizzles but not sure I'm going to end up with any out of this batch.
The air cells look pretty good, these are shipped eggs also. I had to help one yesterday it had pipped on the side & I gave it a small hole to breathe & let it be for over 24 hrs, it was early, but I ended up having to help it quite a bit, but it's out & good now. I have a cream legbar that has...
Hi guys So I have a set of eggs that has been hatching since yesterday evening, I'm on day 20, I have silky, cream legbar & Orpington. I've had 2 of my silkies to hatch & a few of the other breeds. My concern is with my other silky eggs, when I candled them I didn't see any movement or anything...
Yep, your right, it's out now :clapbut she is dragging her shell around by what looks like a tiny string of goo, but she's definitely moving all over the place, bumping into & going over the other eggs. Also 1 of the cream legbar hatched, it has a bit of gunk stuck to it it looks like, but it's...
Ok, I just got done taking off more of the membrane, there's not been much blood at all just what you see in the pic where the little vein is. She's still chirping, which is good I'm hoping. I put her back in bator to rest & warm again. Not sure how long to have out at a time. Should I put...
Ok, so I carefully started to pull back the white membrane & there was no bleeding until I got just past the eye,maybe, so I stopped, dabbed a little corn starch & put back in bator. She still chirps, not like she's hurting or anything. Under the white membrane, it didn't look to be of any color...
Ok thank you! It has been over 24 hrs since external pip was made. I've only taken shell off and left the membrane, was afraid it might start bleeding. It's still alive & starts chirping when I check on it. I'll give it a little more time to maybe work through the membrane before I try again.
Here is a pic of how big I made the opening, I just now had took of a little more shell & started to get some of the membrane but when I started seeing a tiny bit of blood I stopped & put her back & put the damp towel back over her loosely, she chirps at me, so guess that's good. It's just that...
Hi everybody:frow so yesterday morning my little silky pipped externally & I let it be until I noticed the membrane was starting to turn color, so just now I took it out & placed on damp towel & carefully pulled away the yellowish membrane & chipped off a bit of shell, the membrane is white...
I just went to check on my eggs & 1 of my silky has pipped external & it's right below where the air sac is, it's just barely below it. I payed it down with pip facing up, I did have in cut down egg carton. I'm trying to get my humidity up more, it was on 54. Will it be ok since it's not in the...
Just checked my eggs & I have 2 of my silky/frizzle chicks that looks like they are working at getting the internal pip, could see like a little shadow going up & down into the air sac. I've added more water to try to get my humidity up some more, it was around 38-40, so hopefully it'll go up...
Ugh, ok, working on bringing it back up. At 8pm it will be day 18, im going to check them tonight, I have little eggs in with regular size eggs. Should I go ahead and bring the humidity on up after checking them tonight? I sure do hope I haven't messed them up.
Oh wow, I had no idea it was suppose to come out that soon, I'm glad I asked, I happened to see it on another thread I think where someone had taken it out, but according to the directions that came with the incubator, you wouldn't take it out unless a certain elevation I believe. Anyway, I have...
