Hello, I'm a first timer when it comes to incubating eggs. I bought a Hova-Bator 1602N and also purchased the device (yellow egg turner) that tilts them back and forth on a 45 degree angle. However I've gone past the 21 day mark on eggs laid by one of my Buff Cochin Bantam hens. I've candled the eggs and I see the air sack and veins and what appears to be claws and beak on some but none have started to hatch yet. The ones that should be hatching I have laying on their side in front of the rotators.
I'm attaching a photo of the incubator that shows temp and humidity (100 degrees/60 percent humidity). How will I know if they will hatch or not? Oldest egg was laid on June 24th... and today is July 28th... I just don't want to toss out an egg that is about to hatch. But I also don't want a bad egg exploding in my incubator. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
