    Thank you for this great detailed advice. I decided to do a float test first. After not seeing any movement there either I marked the highest point & we drilled a hole in each egg. I also noticed that the eggs did cool down evenly after a bit. It was quickly evident that neither egg had...

    Neither of my eggs have hatched :( No wiggling or whistling. What do you do with them? Can you describe to me how to eggtopsy with the hope of preserving the egg if no chick developed. Thanks.

    All these baby pictures make me so hopeful and excited! We have one more week and the weights have finally evened out after the increased humidity.

    Thank you,Thank you for helping me, the math confuses me and I question my results. I added water and hopefully things will even out a bit. I'll keep an eye on it. A friend gave my son some fertile quail eggs a few days ago and we threw them in the incubator that is full of chicken eggs. It ia...

    Thanks for your help yinepu! They are incubating right now in a Little Giant still air. They will move to the Sportsman near the end after the chicken egg hatch is finished. Here are the pictures. I assumed from reading, that the very dark colors indicated good quality shells. Is this correct...
