    Hi from the UK

    Well, it's now Wednesday and no hatching. To be honest I would have been gobsmacked if any had. Should I now discard the eggs. The hen is still sitting on them. However, it's catching, my other bantam is now broody so I will try again.

    Sadly I don't think it's going to happen. The eggs were very wet this morning, not sure whether I've made a mistake or whether mum has over done the humidity. I'll leave them until Wednesday and then get rid of them They will have been going for 25 days by then.

    Humidity too high?

    Hi Having checked them again today, the eggs were actually sitting in water. They are on hay in a cat carrier. Mum is absolutely saturated. I'm sure this ca't be right. I have an ominous feeling, they are not going to hatch. The eggs have changes colour a lot, does this indicate anything?

    Humidity too high?

    Hi I've a bantam sitting on 4 eggs (not her own), and I'm sure she know what she is doing, but her eggs are wet. She's on day 22 and I know that they could still hatch. I'm just concerned that the humidity is too high? Any advice? Thanks

    Hi We've been keeping chickens for 2 years now and I've found this site really helpful over that time, so thank you all. I've currently got a broody bantam on 4 eggs (not her own) and she's on day 22 of incubation. We're waiting with baited breath
