Lewis Posted May 18, 2010 Author Share Posted May 18, 2010 Bit excited here 2 of the eggs in the incy have pipped ... the CLB and Araucana They're not due until tomorrow so I'm not expecting them out today - bonus if they do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madchook Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Yay lewis I am also due soon - Thursday for me. Unlike last lot there was no wobbling when I took out dividers so hoping they are just quiet ones- done things diff this time, incubated at 37.8 until day 18 and have put humidity up yesterday instead of waiting to first pipper (had v. protracted hatch last time and several overdue's dried out before hatching) .

Lewis Posted May 18, 2010 Author Share Posted May 18, 2010 Good luck with yours Maddy The cracks have got a bit bigger + a bit more cheeping It so tempting to keep opening the incy but I'm being good Hilary also has a pipper - Cream Legbar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 I was just about to go out and the Cream Legbar hatched Not sure if its a girl/boy but the other has hatched (under broody) and they both look different but have the pale male dots The Araucana has pipped pretty much all the way but isn't out yet, and nothing from the Barred Dotte yet, but it wobbled at me .. not due until today anyway Will get photos later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Oh gosh that's a tricky one Does the dark one have defined stripes on it's back? They're not the best CLs in the world are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 Oh gosh that's a tricky one Does the dark one have defined stripes on it's back? Nope ... that means boy doesn't it? Araucana is out of its shell and had its membrane stuck to its back. Wet it with warm water + put it back in the incy and its s"Ooops, word censored!"ed along the side so the membrane is stuck to the side Its belly looks a bit wierd but will see how it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madchook Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 How has it gone Lewis? I had 5 out before I came to bed last night - hopefully the rest are out or making progress now. Only one of the hubbards I think though - hope the others hatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
