    I always let ppl know most like to know some not so much but you did pay for them... It could be a variety of reasons they didn't develop and since none of them started it could be a fertility issue the breeder should know about.

    I stop turning shipped eggs early but otherwise yes take it out my humidity was a little lower at lockdown this time only 65% and it wasn't an issue I think it was too high last time at 80% so add wet sponges as needed and I'm always nervous lol
