I am amazed they are still pipping! You have the patience of a saint. I would be going nuts!

Re: First of the clutch pipped and out!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am!!! and to make matters worse, mamma double clutched on me today, 14 more eggs (though only 5-7 look viable.

I've been trying to put her weight back on since laying the first 17, now I know why she didn't gain any weight.

God, please tell me she's done for the year, I really want to feed her up so I don't see her backbone anymore

I'm sitting here waiting for my other 2 females to lay, and Yuki lays AGAIN, but still nothing from my my other two!! what's up with that??????

On a worse note, I took the knotty one in to a local breeder and she says there's no way it will live and thinks the swollen part is already starting to necrosise?? (tissue death) so we have to euthanize it tonight.

Re: First of the clutch pipped and out!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry about Knotty. You are learning one of the hardest lessons of breeding with your first clutch.

Re: First of the clutch pipped and out!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All 12 of mine from the first clutch hatched out within 48 hours. They began hatching on the 2nd. Anyway, sorry you had to euthanize one. Thankfully I haven't had to do that yet, but I'm prepared if I do.

Re: First of the clutch pipped and out!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations! I am so happy they all came out! I really thought you would have DIE, dead in the eggs. They usually all hatch with in 2-3 days. I am in awe of your patience!

Looking forward to photos.
