    Help???

    Forgot to mention 1 of them hatched Sunday morning and 2 hatched at about 10 pm mon night and the 2 live eggs that are left are the same breed as the ones that hatched last night. I'm guessing all the dead eggs died recently because they looked pretty much fully developed and yolk sacs were...

    Day 18 underdeveloped?

    Day 21 my eggs are alive and moving but not hatching yet my temps were low like 96 for the first 19 days how long do you think it's gonna be? Silkie and polish eggs I figured the silkies would have been pipping by now at least

    Day 18 eggs aren't full

    Yes I did count the day they went in the Bator as day 1 and it did look like temps and humidity were good but I added thermometers and more hygrometers after that which read low so I don't know I've had some fluctuations I guess I'll shoot for the weekend

    Day 18 underdeveloped?

    Ok well they're in cartons as of yesterday afternoon and humidity is at 30% but I'm kinda freakin out with it being day 20 and all. How long should I leave the humidity at that level? Also temp was a bit low so I raised that up too

    Day 18 underdeveloped?

    Some of my chicks seem too small in the egg but still moving and others are full but can't see movement also the air sacs seem to be a bit too small humidity was a bit high the first 11 days. Still air little giant with no auto turner and manually turned 3 times a day
