Alot of those eggs had blood rings which mean the eggs dead. At 15 days the eggs need to be mostly black. Hatching is fun. Im doing 35 right now. Ameraucanas x brahmas
So fun! Did you have these eggs shipped? That egg that looked like two air cells is a detached (saddle) air cell and it’s common when hatching shipped eggs. I’ve had really good luck incubating shipped eggs in an automatic turner in the upright position and hatching them in a cut down egg carton ❤️🥚
So question, my eggs look a lot like yours and I am thinking some may not hatch or all. I am trying to prepare the kids but maybe one or two will hatch. Did yours hatch?
Hi Mary! No, these ones never did. I think it was the fault of the incubator, though. It kept throwing strange warning beeps and was just really hard to keep constant with the temp and humidity. We did end up purchasing a Brinsea Incubator after this one failed and that one is awesome! We also did the 'dry hatch' method the second time around with some new eggs and ended up with a bunch of baby chicks. The first round was disappointing for the kids but they were doubly excited about the second round, though, and were also able to compare what worked and what didn't between the two and we had lots of discussions about which things we should maybe change the second time around to get a better result. So, a great learning experience all around, really. 😊
@@aliamjad7262 That was one that we bought from Amazon. Some folks have success with it, but we never did. We liked the Brinsea one that we got later much much better and highly recommend that one!
Your kids sounds so lovely and funny!

Yep. This batch didn't make it. But was still a great learning experience! 😊
I was hoping someone said this to help out. It was something we learned this week.
"I love shape" - lmao. awesome kid.
Bok, bok, bok! Your babies are super cute! Thank you for the great video! Mine are at day 16

Those are blood rings... Most of your egg are already dead...
I agree, I was gonna say that
You guys were right, of course. 😊 After this round we switched to a new incubator and had a lot more success!
I just came on here to say the same.
They should fill the shell by day 15. The 1st 2 are bad.
Don't turn upside-down you'll drown them dude!
The ring is blood ring 😢
Blood rings there dead on some so sorry I just threw 2 out that had rings:(
You're right. We lost all of those, but had much better luck when we bought a better incubator the second time around. This one was total junk. 🙄😜
@@homestyleadventures2350 what incubator

The ring is a blood ring. Dead egg
Too bad you guys wound up with so many yokels…
