    Predominant Sex??

    Lower temps are better than high temps, if they have to veer from the normal ranges, as they usually just prolong the incubation period. I dont know if there is a certain time that the high temps would do more damage, though.

    Predominant Sex??

    Anything in the bator that causes embryos to die is what I mean, such as a temp spike. The tougher ones are the males, so they tend to survive mishaps. It doesn't create the sex, just manages to kill off the female embryos.

    Predominant Sex??

    Quote: It is reversed in birds, that's true. A hen's offspring have their sex determined before she even lays the egg, I've read. Some will throw more girls than boys or vice versa. In incubation, if there is a problem, usually more males survive that.
