    Did I kill my set?

    So I ordered eggs thru the mail. Let them set 12 hours out side the incubator. Set them and intentionally did not turn on my turner just so I could have 12 more hours for the air cells, needless to say I’m on day 3 and just remember to turn it on, crisis or no? Help plz!

    Hatching eggs accidentally refridgerated

    My mother in law was over today while I was at work, thinking she was being helpful, washed my dishes, ran the vacuum, and put the eggs in the egg carton, on the counter away in the fridge. This lasted for about 9 hours until I got home from work. Any thoughts or advice? Good still or not? Thx!

    space restricted brooding of ducks and chicks

    I have 6 ducklings and 8 chicks I picked up yesterday. I am brooding them together, my question is the flock raiser is safe for the baby pullets? I know the niacin is sufficient in the flock raiser for the ducks, but is the protein too high for the chicks? TIA
