Well folks... none made it... they made it very far...but not to hatch day....poor babies... next time I try i need to have a whole month where I don't go out of town... thank you for the help though!!

Looks like the blood vessels have receeded... no blood ring of course... should I open the membrane and not the the egg, too?

Ok I candled... if you saw my earlier posts I had to go out of town when the chicks were on day 12 ... it looks like they got stuck to one side of the egg .

Should I give them up to day 25?

Alrighty today is day 21... I have seen no pipping... which scares me. If none hatch, I say it is due to my time of not turning them for those few days. I'm hoping for at least one of the three to hatch for me. :fl:fl

Thank you!! I want to get at least one little serama. :fl:fl

On day 15 of the incubation period. Are 2 turns enough till lock down or should I do 3 to makeup for list time?

Alrighty I just got back home and alas... 3 out of the 4 are still going. I just candled and one of the 3 had a slightly saddle shaped air cell. Do you think it will cause problems? :oops:

Well the last day for me to turn was dat 12... when I get home again I'm starr turning some more till it's day 17 or 18?

So less turning is better?

Ok I'll ask her today if she can do it for me... I need at least one little one to hatch. If I use the turner should I pad it since it's for the size of regular chicken eggs?

Maybe I can get my mom to turn them every other day at least 3 times?

I'm going out of town tomorrow... I'm on day 11 or 12 :fl... I guess I can put them in the automatic while I am gone... although the hand turning has been way more effecient... what say you?

Alright I just candled... out of 10 we have... 4 quiters... 4 going beautifully strong... and 2 undeveloped... I forgot that I am going out of town this weekend so I have to ask someone to turn the eggs for me... i don't know if I should switch to the automatic for the few days while I am...

Ok this is trial 2... I have 10 eggs from @TJChickens and they are in the incubator and I'm doing a dry hatch and the temperature is stable. Last time I used an automatic turner and now I am hand turning (well a hand turning contraption I created). I'm going to candle on day 10, which is...

I am actually down to one now.... (Sigh) I'm not going to candle anymore I'm worried.

So out of the 9 eggs I put into the incubator only one is still going the rest had blood rings or nothing at all... there are 3 other eggs in there that are a few days behind but they are going well too...out of 12 I have 4 right now... I blame these crazy temperatures...

Come day 7 I will do an update!

I also received eggs from TJChickens yesterday...9 to be exact. They are in a still air around 100°F with about 40-45% humidity. Let's hope this hatch goes well.
