I purchased 17 eggs from a local person and 16 developed. My temperature and humidity stayed near 100 and 55%. Sunday was day 18 and I took them off the turner. When I did, I found 2 of them had pipped. Of these, one I could see the beak.. It died. Monday, 5 hatched. Today 1 hatched. Tomorrow should be hatch day. Temp is currently 101 and humidity 50% down from about 65% when they went on lock down. I know have 3 eggs that have pipped to the point I can see beak and a little feathers and they've died. My mayor does have a fan. What could be the cause of the early hatching and swathes? I'm most concerned about the deathes. Also, I got the eggs on a Wednesday and left them in the counter until Sunday before putting them in the incubator.
