    Can I get some advice here?

    I'm not sure what happened. I think a snake grabbed it and it got away because his sibling was found half swallowed and spit out. I just noticed this chick like this. Hopefully I'll get the pics too. It appears to be infected, and as hot as this little child is it's pretty bad. Should I try...

    Hatching question

    It was a terrible hatching. I forgot to raise humidity a all during lockdown. Half of them pipped and some started to unzip and never went any further. You live and you learn..

    Incubator calibration question

    I have the same one. Did you get it right? It took some guess work and a little red fluid thermometer, and I've seen development, but keep having problems other than temp and humidity like opening it too much or power went out. But I'm trying again, like the 5th time. I hope you figured it out...
