Hey fam!!!
This is my first go around incubating eggs. I currently have 8 in a self-turning incubator that I purchased at our local Agway. I have been mainting the humidity, and the temperature always seems to be exactly right! I decided to candle my eggs this evening and 6 of them appear to be...
Hi friends,
I’m on my second incubation attempt ever. First time using my improved diy incubator after learning a lot from my not great first incubation attempt.
I’ve got 48 coturnix eggs that I picked up from a neighbor that says they typically get a 75% hatch rate.

Thanks
Hello all, my broody hen just hatched 11 out of 12 eggs on day 21-22, and one was left cold in the nest after she got out to tend to the rest so I put it in the incubator. I've been candeling it once a day and it has a good air cell and I see something pulsating near the air cell but no big...
