This is my first hatch. I just put 42 eggs in the incubator this morning. Purchased yesterday from two different local chicken farms.

Marans
Speckled Sussex
Blue laced red Wyandottes
Buff (not sure buff what)

Black Australorp x EE or Frizzle EE roo
And one other hen with same Roos

I am using a LG still air incubator using dry hatch method. My room humidity without adding water is around 48%. (Central AL)

Day 5 I candled I can see clear veining in one of the EE eggs and don't really see anything developing in the other eggs as yet. Hopefully a few more are fertile and develop so that I don't end up with one lonely chick in the brooder.

I really was hoping to find some Turkey or guinea eggs to set for the Easter hatchalong but I can't find any available in time.
