If they don’t hatch I would do an eggtopsy so you know what went wrong. It can be a bit heartbreaking but you’ll gain knowledge as to where the incubation went wrong and if the chicks even developed fully. That way you’ll know to try a different method or adjust your experiment.
Any news today?
I do think putting it in an enclosed area will help since hens sit on their eggs and keep a consistent temp on all part of the egg not just the bottom or top.
So today is day 21? So we better hear from them very soon. Were they developed according to date or were they behind? That way I can get an idea if they will hatch late
All mine hatched yesterday and today. So I’m here cheering your hatch on now.
Oh believe me! I wanted to assist so bad at least 3 times and my husband said no! Good thing too since they all hatched and are healthy.
I am now debating on placing the last hatchling in with the others since...
Well I saw the thread was started March 21st and I thought to myself: surely it is day 21 by now. Then I came to the end and saw no pics of newly hatched chicks. Then it dawned on me, I set my own eggs on March 21st and I am not on day 21 so why would you be on day 21 🤣
