You've done great!!! Beautiful babies!! So very happy for you!!!

That's great!! You've done very well!! They could pip anytime within 24hrs, or up to 3 days, just be patient (I know, that is the hardest, lol). That rocking is the chick moving around into position, and why we stop turning them at this time as that helps them figure out which end is up. They...

That sounds great! Good job setting that up! I think you are doing just fine. Just raise the humidity tomorrow and then wait patiently, lol. Don't know if you're planning on it, but I recommend putting a sponge in to help keep the humidity higher during lockdown. And is there a small hole that...

No problem, glad to help. That 4th one is called saddle shaped aircell, common with shipped eggs, happens when aircell reattaches slightly off. Those can hatch, or not, but better chances of it than one that didn't reattach at all. I did my first hatch with shipped eggs, lol, and learned a lot...

This is my personal experience with shipped eggs, so you can take it with a grain of salt, just want to share what helps me to be successful. I candle them after unwrapping to check for any cracks, bacteria can get in easy and turn them bad. A bad egg can explode in your incubator contaminating...

Crap, just lost everything I typed. Retyping now, lol.

Don't stress on being exact on lockdown, just as long as its done before your first pip (sometimes at the first pip) and you'll be ok. Shipped eggs, huh? I've hatched quite a few of those. Did you candle them to see if the aircells were detached? How are they sitting in the bator, on sides or on...

Looks great and sounds like you're doing fine. First time hatch ever?
