These pictures are for ducks, but you might find them useful: -Kathy

Here's the one I was able to save - This is how it looked on day 28: -Kathy

I'll hide my head in shame and say that of the 41 eggs set so far, only 11 chicks hatched... One of those is Crookie, and another died from a yolk sac infection. Eggs 42-71 are in the incubator, but that's it, I will not put more in them, instead I will use broodies. -Kathy

Of course I'm no xpert, but I everything I have read says to open all vent holes. Somewhere I have something that explains how dangerous the co2 leves are for eggs... Will look for that. -Kathy

My comments should be counted as worthless, lol. This year I decided to use bators instead of broodies and my hatch rates are *really* low. But I agree, I think a RH of 60 is way too high. @AmyLynn2374 doesn't hatch peafowl eggs, but always has good info regarding humidity. -Kathy

I turn mine. -Kathy

They are huge, aren't they? Mine are larger than duck and turkey eggs! -Kathy

Welcome to BYC! -Kathy

Way too dry here to run mine without water. -Kathy

Is it a still air incubator? -Kathy

Was it this thread we were talking about floating eggs? Doesn't matter, lol, but this might interest some. It's for chicken eggs, but it will still work for peas, just add a couple of days to each, I guess. It came from this link...

Congrats on the one and hope all goes well for you! I have a bunch at day 24, so nothing for me here tonight. -Kathy

I'd be hesitant about bringing home anything that's been anywhere but a brooder. Chicken or Turkey would be my choice, but only if their feet had never touched the ground.Read this: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/804570/coping-with-blackhead -Kathy

Some people will give a drop of Nutri Drench to weak chicks. I've done that with chicken chicks and ducklings and it does seem to perk them up a bit. -Kathy

I'd just send you a few for the cost of shipping and shipping material. -kathy
