I collect eggs for 10 days from my one and only hen. First time I hatched eggs I collected eggs for 16days but I know that's way to long. So now I will collect eggs from her every 10 days. Once I get more Hens it will be easier to get healthy eggs I hope.
Collect them 7 days and...

Thanks will check it out. The first hatch I did I candled them a lot. I know I shouldn't of but it's hard to keep your hands off, this time I only candled them once so far and I'm on day 14. Will candle again on Day 18.

I live in a humid climate and I don't add any water to the incubator for the first 18days and the lowest humidity I can get is around 47% I'm not to sure how to get it lower than that.

I'm still really new to incubating and would love to get some tip for a successful hatch with a high hatch rate. I have eggs in the incubator right now that are going on 14days. I candled them a few days ago and only 4/10 were healthy. 2 of the eggs were duds and 4 had tiny dead chicks in them...
