Ok. So I started my first hatch last Sunday. Candles yesterday and see absolutely nothing. Some I can see an air sac but that's it.
I have 2 thermometers in addition to the one in the little giant 9300. No fan. Still air. I think both my thermometers suck. I tested for days prior to placing them and it seemed consistent. Now, it's hit or miss. Temps have ranged between 99 & 105. I know what your gonna say. 105 will kill them. Which is why I'm so depressed. My rooster died a couple weeks ago so this was my lone shot to carry on Moo's genes. I don't know how long it stayed at 105 but couldn't have been long (this thermometer has a hi/low memory setting so it tells me the least and highest temps of the day.) I've got the incubator in a no draft, infrequently traveled area of my house. Yeah. I could buy another thermometer but I think I've killed them, my rooster is dead and the girls production has really went down.
Guess I just needed to get it off my chest. I don't know what to do. Or if there's anything I can do. I'll wait a few more days and candle again. Wish me luck.
