    Chicken egg day 24 and peeping

    Hi, I incubated 6 eggs, and 5 hatched on Day 21 (this past Fri) with first external pips at 2am to last hatched by 10:30pm. Three eggs were from my Buff hen (all Orpington), and the last one left is a Buff. While the other hatchlings were dried and fluffy, this one still had veins visible. It...

    any experience w late eggs hatching?

    Hi! I had 5 of 6 incubator chicken eggs pip and hatch within 24 hrs on 'hatch day', which was this Friday. The chick inside peeped this morning but isn't pipping externally. What's the latest you had a 'last egg' pip and then hatch, or be alive and then die without pipping or without hatching?

    Approaching the end of day 20 and… nothing

    My last hatch began to hatch day 20, I did the exact same thing this time and there is nothing! No pips and not peeping. Day 21 is starting in a few hours, I’m not positive what time I set these. These dang eggs are going to give me grey hairs -_-

    Day 29 one duck hatched day 26--still see movement in eggs but no pipping!

    So I'm incubating duck eggs in my classroom, and one duck hatched on day 26 (Tuesday) in the evening. On Thursday morning (day 28), I removed the duckling from the incubator to the brooder and put in more water and some sponges as I did so to try to prevent to much drop in humidity. Since I keep...

    Chicks Overdue :(

    Hey guys! I'm really stressing over here! This is my second attempt at egg hatching. First go around I made a home made incubator for some quail eggs. Needless to say the were way too hot and we had boiled quail eggs by the end of day 2. D'OH! I decided to wait on the quail because during the...

    HELP!! Day 24 with no pip but living embryo?

    Hi! This is my first chicken egg (only one- the others passed) and I just made this account so I'm pretty new. It's day 24 of a pretty rocky incubation- temp has been fine the whole time but the humidity was too high the first 18 days and while I thought it was fine during lockdown the air cell...
