4-H Embryology Week 3 4-H Pledge I pledge my Head to clearer thinking my Heart to greater loyalty my Hands to larger service and my Health to better living for my club, my community my country and my world. Which egg is fertile? Which egg is fertile? The egg I circled is fertile because it’s germinal spot is larger and it contains both male and female parent cells. The fertilized egg is formed when male and female cells unite during mating. They are fertile. They are Leghorn eggs. The color of the shells are white. X X X The air cell looked like a dime. Page 11 The temperature of the incubator is 99 – 101 degrees F. Water should be added to the incubator every day. We should turn our eggs five times per day. We observe embryos by candling.

Preparing for Hatch Day Day 18 - Friday •Stop turning the eggs •Fill tray #2 with water •Bunch the eggs together in the incubator •Prepare the Brooder Box What’s a Brooder Box? Expectations for Hatch Day Day 21 - Monday •Peeping •Pip holes •Cracks, hatching •Blood, fluids, odor •Chicks! It can take from one to 24 hours for a chick to go from pip hole to fully hatched. BE PATIENT! Hatch Day Rules •Your teacher will move chicks from the incubator to the brooder box. •Monitor chicks to be sure they are not too hot or too cold. •Chicks rest for 10-24 hrs after hatching before you may hold them. Rules for Holding Chicks Wash your hands before and after holding chicks. Sit on the floor and hold the chick against your belly. NO STANDING. NO CHICKS ON DESKS, TABLES OR THE FLOOR. Do not wake a sleeping chick. Do not hold chicks if you are sick. If your chick escapes, remain seated and calm. Your teacher will capture your chick.
