Sorry, long time, no see. I had a lot of finals to finish up.
No, none of the rest hatched, but then again, some of the eggs were oblong or abnormal. I would've took them out, but the guy who gave me the eggs really wanted more chickens, and I didn't want to say that I haven't put...
I didn't have anything to measure the humidity, so I just followed a manual. Sadly, the incubator came from a garage sale and didn't have a manual, so I searched online. The online manual was for the same model, but the new improved one, which I didn't have.
Next time I'll buy something to...
Yes, I think I'll try and help it. I read somewhere on how to do so, and I'll try my best.
I think the temperature was pretty consistent, but sometimes the water trays would run out and I'd have to fill them again. I wish I wasn't learning it the hard way... :(
Hi everybody,
Today's day 23, and the egg in the corner still hasn't hatched. The egg is cracking a bit, but I'm worried that it won't make it. Is there any reason why this is happening?
Good news! Today's day 22 and the egg in the corner is moving! I can even hear the shell being pecked(I think!) But it still isn't peeping anymore, is that normal?
The half-hatched one is the one in the corner, and it's still very silent. I don't know what to do with it. Maybe I'll just have to wait it out, I still have some hope in it.
The other egg (the one with the small hole) seems like it's dead, the volume of blood seems way too much.
I've got...
Thanks for the reply, mnferalkitty.

Hey everybody,
I'm pretty new to this forum and I'm also new to raising chickens, this is my first post, and I'm sorry if I ask some easy-to-answer questions. It's my first incubation and I'm very worried, cuz today is day 21.
I don't know when this happened(maybe 3 days ago?)...
