Keep plugging on, your hatch rates have always been so good :hugs
Thanks. My broodys were doing so good going back to the same box. Then I swear I gave them eggs and they started going back to the wrong box. Well one normally goes back and someone else is in her box laying so she goes to another box. The other one is a bit of a mess right now, she had 2 chicks that just hatched so was "babysitting" the ones from the incubator while eggs that were hatching could hatch. She got off a couple times today and one ended up out of the nest, couldn't tell if it was still viable, then later went to a different box which is how one ended up broken (another hen went in to use the side to jump up on the roost so think she stepped on it).

But was questioning if some were still growing and think the one that was broken was one I wasn't sure about.
