Let's invent a banana breed! Also I started a new thread for people setting tonight and tomorrow.

Thank you but it was unfortunately expected. Just glad I got the four live ones that I did.

Thank you auto correct. Banana=bantam

I just went ahead and broke them all open. Bad news all were dead even the banana egg that ended up being a naked neck :'( good news they were all to term. So next time when I set them correctly they should all make it.

@ Bug I caved and turned the lights on :P. Today is day 23 and I still have about 8 eggs in the bator. How long should i wait? I don't want to rush it cause yesterday I accidentally killed on trying to assist too soon. However they all are mal positioned so I don't know what to do.

It's 3:21 am here and I just finished assisting the last two hopefuls out of their shells. Both are very tired. So far I have four live hatches and two that pipped and died. I still have 18 eggs in there three of which I'm sure were quitters about 5 days ago. After setting them upside down for...

Tomorrow is day twenty for me I can't wait! I also set my eggs upside down :(

Congrats! Post pics when you can! So so so exciting!

New to BYC and expecting my first hatch from an incubator on Monday though there is one bantem in there so maybe as early as tomorrow :) I already started prepping for lock down on Saturday just in case the bantem comes early. Also I read information incorrectly and set all 26 eggs upside down...
