If they came from a place that has had alot of rain and water standing it could be in simple terms pneumonia or cholera. It is going around bad right now from muddy pens and all the rain. Pneumonia will affect the joints if left untreated. If it is that or cholera you have to give one half cc...

hey panner my money is on you.. I just had a 99% hatch rate and half of those were shipped eggs. You and I are of the same minds when it comes to not touching and humidity. I Have two LGS a hovabator and a sportsman and I get the same hatch rate no matter which I use which all four are usually...
