I had set my second batch of eggs and for some reason my incubator did not reset properly so I had eggs setting and not being turned for the first 3-4 days. I had started to question the position on day 3 and manually turned a couple of times late that day then did research on how to reset and got it up and running on day 4. It has been automatically turning now and I candled on day 8. Looks like I have chicks developing but they are all off to one side and the air cells on those eggs are not at the top but off to opposite side of the developing chick. Do the chicks have a chance at hatching out themselves? Is there anything I can do? They should start to PIP on April 22. I have a Nurture Right 360 so the eggs are on their side and rolled to be turned, but I have a styrofoam bator that I can switch them to if anyone thinks that would improve the air cells position after Day 8 of incubation.
