GOOD NEWS!!! thank you for coming back!! sometimes ppl dont tell us and let us hang!The leathery looking inside part seems to look softer now. Four chicks have hatched now. Still worried about the other three but not as much. There are three others that haven't done anything but that's fine. I'll leave the incubator on for a couple more days if they don't do something by the time all these are fluffy. I'll remove the dry ones and let them keep on.
