    I can still see veins in chicken eggs day 22

    Hi, 4 chickens hatched and 11 died in eggs. They were big, they probably started "eating" yolk. So I think they drowned. What do you think? And some pictures of hatched chickens: I will send more, I didnt want to disturbe them too much ;)

    I can still see veins in chicken eggs day 22

    Oh, everywhere I found information about humidity it said that it should be around 50% and temperature around 37.3°C so I am happy you gave me information. I set temperature a little low because I probably "coocked" last round of eggs. Today 1 chicken hatched and 2 are on their way, I hope...

    I can still see veins in chicken eggs day 22

    And what do you think about humidity? Should I set it to like 65% or something like that because they need longer to hatch and that enough water will evapourate from eggs?
