Will they or won't they hatch?
« Reply #15 on: August 20, 2008, 17:10 »
I checked them again, and there was nothing, no movement at all or chirps. So I decided to open them slightly and it turns out that I had 2 still births and an abortion (there was one I was unsure of when candled) So it is all a little bit sad, but at least I did get 2 chicks!!

Anyway, the two still births had not penetrated the membrane, Do you think the problem is incorrect humidity? I don't have a humidity metre, and was going by the incubator instructions. I think next time I will have to get one.

Anyway, I have had problems getting the images up, as I am using firefox on linux and photobucket keeps crashing. Anyway, I have made an avatar, which may or may not work!!

Thanks for all the help Vember

They are beautiful little babies, I'm so pleased you have those 2 :)

You can never tell with Incys and although I do have one putting eggs under a broody hen always works better, takes some of the stress away  :lol:

There's no real way of knowing what caused the chicks not to break out of the shell?? Just one of those things.

Have you named the little fluff balls yet ???
