None of my 12 eggs made it. So none of mine will count towards the total. It was my first time incubating and I'm trying again! I have made one correction in that I'm now going to use a separate temp/humidity gauge. I'm also only going to candle twice (halfway through and right before lockdown). Also, I relocated my incubator away from windows and into my garage. It's been running for 24 hours, I've let my eggs sit and come to room temp. I also cleaned out my incubator with a bleach/water solution. I'm hoping all of these changes will prove successful! I'm incubating Bielefelder, an EE/Rhode Island Red cross, Rhode Island Red, and Black Stars (Barred Rock hen and Rhode Island Red rooster). Wish me luck!!

Congrats to all that had a successful hatch. I'm sorry to all that did not have a very successful.

Wife just told me that both feed stores up here lost there chicks during shipping. I just sold my last hatch (34) to someone who couldn't get chicks in town. I guess I'm going to set 100 eggs for the April hatch. People calling and saying they heard we have chicks for sale and we're now out. I even sold 5 of my 8 week olds from my previous hatch for $25 each.

I think I'm going to need to build a bigger incubator.
