Great, great pictures everyone. Love seeing everyone's extended families. We had this guy show up about a week ago and luckily only came around a few times. We had a few catfish die in the pond and he was around when the vultures went after the dead catfish but didn't challenge any of them... -

Good morning everyone. Thanks Iain for the plug suggestion. They are removed, condensation is gone and the eggs look better. One is starting to come through more but the one that started first has not made anymore progress. I can still see the fast breathing and the beak lifts to the opening... -

No, they are closed. I have been opening them occasionally, for brief periods of time to hear the chirping, but predominately they are closed. Initially I forgot to take the plugs out and then left them that way to maintain temps. We just set this second incubator up for hatching only...
