Yes i have a setting with +- 0.3 on the thermostat. The temps in the waterbed is quite steady and spot on but somehow the temp on the egg is higher. Almost every morning the 1st temp i got on the eggs are always around 40C. So I'm not sure if that's ok.. What are the eggs temp when incubating in...

My thermometer is 1of those boxed one displaying temp and humidity. So not sure where the probe is.. Do u think i should cover it with a thicker breathable material touching the egg to keep warm instead of a towel over the top of incubator, hence, air temp inside not reaching 37.5c? But would...

The thermometer is not calibrated coz i dont know how but i have calibrated the humidity meter side of it. It is sitting on top of the waterbed like the eggs but showing 33.8C. But i use the temp gun to check the egg temp its always around 38-39 sometimes near 40, i guess the chick inside also...

I manually turn the eggs at least 4 times a day. The other side of the egg is full tho i can see its still moving. Blood vessels pumping. Its a homemade incubator with waterbed heating from underneath which set on 37.5 with a thermostat. Covered with towel. I wondered if it is because direct...

The other side of the egg i can see its full and still moving

We just lost the 3rd one too :( yesterday still have veins now all gone.. Is it because too dry? Or the humidity was wrong to start with? its day 25 on sunday for this 4th one. But half of egg looks empty? Is this normal? This is the last one standing..

Just tiny movement tho because and the egg temp still high 38'C so assuming still alive. Still can see blood vessels on the edge or aircell.

Fyi today is day 28, i have lowered humidity to 35-40% last couple of days and turn the egg by 5degree only since it was supposed to go into lockdown.. The aircell has receded!! Last time i posted the photo of this egg the aircell was at the 1st line. I guess I'll lock it down from tonight...

Unfortunately there were no movement 😣...

I think i have lost another one. It has gone cold.. What do u think?

Wow thank you for your informative advice! Ok I'll try to run it in the dry side. Yes i have been spraying them with warm water twice a day until i found out something wrong with Egg1. So it's been nearly a week with no spraying. My homemade incubator is actually a rice cooker with waterbed...

Yes sure i think the photos didnt go thru? I'll post up again

Yes i agree. Today we said goodbye and did the eggtopsy.. It looked quite developed probably few more days to go. The kids and I were all devastated. I had a little cry myself. Lesson learned never water test until absolute had to.. And check for holes :hit

Yes please see attached photos. I have wiped down the incubator with sanitizer in case egg 1 was bacterial infected. Now i have 2 eggs (egg#2 #3)going into lockdown - definitely still have movements! And the youngest one's (egg#4) due date is 31 Aug.. You'll see the 1st 2 photos, that egg is...

Thank you for your advice. We are in New Zealand and Mallard ducks are not protected here so it's ok :) Yes those photos are all Egg1. I couldnt see any movement and in fact after I saw the replies I went ahead and smell the egg and yikes! It's definitely passed. I remember the water test on...

Hi everyone. We just moved into this property abd random eggs kept showing up in random places like driveway, stone deco and under the tree. We often have mallard ducks and paradise shelducks visiting the pond nearby. We picked up 4 eggs in total at different week during last 30 days. We didnt...
