Hi everyone I am new to this sight. I am working on my first incubation set up, and I need lots of help. I made my own incubator out of a styrofoam cooler, it is still air, my humidity was around 55% and temp was around 99 to 102 through the first part, then I got humidity up to 65% to 70% when I put them on lock down, hatch day was yesterday, put nothing happened, so I did a float test just to see if they were alive and all but three were, now I have one that is alive but not sure it will make it, they never piped, and when I opened the one that were dead the yolk sack was still in the shell and was not absorbed, can some one please lead me in the right direction on what I am doing wrong, I have a second incubator set up with more eggs, I don't want to loose them all, they are my own eggs. Oh and I have candled most of the new ones and they are looking good so far.
