Don’t have any roosters but it’s nice to read about possible ways to keep a rooster from being mean should I ever get one. Though I’m actually terrified of anything feathery and are finally starting to get over it I probably won’t get one for a long time

I’ve been interested in this experiment myself and while your summary is brilliant, the key point you’re missing is the fact that you need to pump straight oxygen into the artificial vessel from day 17 till hatch, which is a step that cannot be left out. In the article it is explained that all embryos without O2 during the last days died, so unless you have an oxygen supply this experiment will probably fail at home.
Great article otherwise though!

Yes I did read that section of the article as well and I mentioned in a few places in my write up of it that pure oxygen was supplied in the lab. However I didn't think it was feasible for most backyard breeders to supply pure oxygen like that so I chose not to put a lot of emphasis on it in this article. If I had hatching eggs to try it with I would love to test and see how badly the oxygen is needed and what the hatchability rate would be without it. Thank you for reading though!! :)
