This one I think had its head under its left wing. This one did have some sort of liquid substance. I was too afraid to look fully at it, so don't know what position it was in. This one had a saddle air cell. I think it was in the right position, but I don't remember exactly when I took it...

Final update on the hatch. Got 9 total chicks, 6 hatched a day early, and 3 the actual hatch date. Unfortunately, 3 of them did not make it. I doubled checked by opening up the eggs. I regret not helping one of the Welsummer eggs sooner. It was moving 2 hours before I decided to try and help it...

1 more external pip, and 1 of the Black Australorp eggs just hatched! Making it a day early, although we'll see what the others do.

Of course lol. Got 4 (12 total eggs) external pips as of this morning. I'm relieved that there's finally some progress that I can actually see.

I'm thinking I will if it continues to decrease, but for now I'll monitor it closely. Probably the only thing I'd change about this incubator is being able to change the degrees by .1 vs .5 Okay thank you, hopefully it is that the thermometer is a little lower than it normally is. I'll just...

Well we use wood heat, so I'm not entirely sure. If I had to guess, perhaps 65 by the way it feels. Usually it's around 75-85.

Okay, conclusion is that it is about the same in the middle from where it was. It's actually showing 97.2 right now. And warm water did temporarily raise the temp, but not for long. The house is a little colder now, so that could be a factor. I'll try raising the room temperature with my heater...

Alright, I moved it. I added water after opening the incubator, and this time used warm water, which did help increase the temp by .2 degrees. I'll give it an hour or so and see if it changes or not.

No, I used room temperature water. I'll have to try warming it up next time and see if that helps. Sort of to the side, not in the middle.

I added the water about 2 hours ago, where the temp went from 97.7 to 97.3 in about 10 minutes. For the past hour it has been fluctuating between 97.3 and 97.5, and now it has steadied out at 97.5. When I initially increased humidity 2 days ago, the temp had decreased to 98.8-99.0. And starting...

Hi, looking for some advice here. Today's day 19 for my chicken eggs. I've been using this new thermometer/hygrometer that has been keeping track throughout my temps and humidity. Anyway, last year they all hatched a day early. So to be safe, I stopped turning day 17 this time and increased...

Sounds good. Thank you! 👍

I started with 12 eggs, 2 died during incubation (one in the first week, another in the second week). 10 eggs were put in lockdown on Friday (hatch day Monday 29th), but 9/10 hatched early on day 20. Any thoughts on why this happened? All of them were healthy and yolk was fully absorbed in each...

Thank you for all of the resources, I will definitely check them out. Sounds good, I did trace the air cells before I put them in the incubator on Monday. Thank you, sounds good.

I just bought this incubator about a week ago and added 12 chicken eggs on Monday the 8th. I bought the eggs from someone else and the chicks will be mixed breed. General hatching question: what is the ideal humidity range? The paper with the packaging said 50%. Does this sound right? Also, I...
