Hi everyone. Been hatching eggs for years and had good luck. The past 2 years, I have had issues hatching out the waterfowl. Always been in the same incubator as all my other eggs, and been good. Chickens, quail, guineas, all hatch well. Waterfowl all seem to go right to the end and not pip. I have tried lower humidity this year, higher humidity, moving eggs at last couple days or sign of first pip to higher humidity hatcher. Nothing seems to help. Have large redwood incubator, temp 99-100, humididty runs around 40%. Keep all eggs in there until due to hatch. All chicken and quail eggs stay in there to hatch. I have left duck and goose in there to hatch as well, and low hatches. (just had 3 pilgrim goslings hatch out of 18 eggs, all of which were fertile and developed well). Have also moved the waterfowl to a hatcher, with humidity running between 60-65% and temp 98-99, seems to be no change. Have put a wet sponge in there next to the eggs to help and still no difference. Any Ideas?
Thanks
Thanks
