    Chick's right eye hurt or disease?

    So I just incubated chicks and 10 hatched. About 3, maybe a 4th, has their right eye closed most of the time. It's odd that it's all their right eyes. They can open them although they don't very often. I was reading some posts here and some people said maybe they got scratched/pecked/bumped...

    Eggs aren't hatching

    Setting a new batch of eggs with an old

    So I borrowed an incubator and had it running a few days before I set a batch of eggs. I candled the eggs today at day 10/11 and found all but one egg alive. A few infertile, several with blood rings, and many with blood rings and dead, partly developed embryos. Is that a temperature problem...
