    it's around 30 days in for my first emu egg, and I just notice that the temp that was being displayed was wrong it was set to 97.5 but the real temp was around 94.4ish. It's losing the right amount of weight though; even with the real temp. Can I assume that this egg won't make it haven't seen...

    Thermometer/Hydrometer inconsistencies

    So last hatch I had some problems that were related to bad or fluctuations in temps/humidity (spraddle leg in one chick, a late hatch, and shrink wrapping during hatch) so I decided that my hydrometer/Thermometer might be problematic. I bought a govee wireless dongle version so my phone would...

    Incubator Temperature too low - Day 22

    Hey the last two hatches I did in my Brinsea Incubator have hatched early day 19 and 20. I didn't think about the temperature possibly being wrong till it reached day 21 and no pips. Found out the temperature has been sitting about 35.8 Degrees Is there still a chance they will hatch? I'm...

    Sportsman Cabinet Incubator 1502 Fan Troubleshooting

    needing some insight on the sportsman cabinet incubator 1502 this model is an older model from about 2006. Should the fan run all the time? (I can't remember) and when it does run it shuts off way before the desired temperature. I even turned off the heat and then 20 minutes later the fan kicked...

    Hatching Help

    I have 17 eggs in the incubator. Yesterday was day 21, out of 17 eggs we put in only 2 hatched yesterday morning/afternoon. Since those 2 the other eggs have not even started pipping. Should I be worried no other eggs have started hatching? Should I leave the baby chicks in there until they do...

    Just Hatched D

    This duckling hatched about 10 minutes ago and seems to be doing fine except for this large attached bulb. What is this? What can I do about it? Is this normal?

    What is the ultimate BEST hatcher?

    After a long search, I’ve found my top favorite incubators for days 1-18, but what about the best hatcher for days 19-21? A lot of people keep their eggs in the same incubator during lockdown and hatch days, but having a separate place for lockdown and hatch is very helpful if you have multiple...

    An ID-10-T error in incubation? Apparently-developed chicks never making it out of their eggs.

    So our second round of quail chicks has largely hatched, and we seem to have found the same problem this time as last. Our incubator runs at 100.5 degrees and for hatching we get humidity up to around 78% and it drops to around 69 by the time they're done. We dry incubated both times until...

    Eggs not Hatching

    Hi, It is my first time hatching eggs and so far, 1 out of 4 eggs has hatched. There is definitely development in the unhatched eggs as I have seen through candling but no pips yet. I may have stopped turning early as I was away from home when the eggs were layed and were unable to date them. I...

    I’ve been looking online trying to figure out who how i should put my humidity in the incubator for when they hatch. It always seems to vary from 60%-70%. So I wanted to come straight to the experts and ask you guys what percentage of humidity you’ve had more luck with.

    Have a bad feeling. Day 21 nothing.

    Good morning everyone. We have 5 eggs that made it to today -day 21 We have nothing, no rocking, no pip, no chirp. We had an incident on day 17 where my little girl accidentally unplugged the incubator but we realised pretty quickly (I’d say 20-30mins) and the egg were not cold to the touch. We...

    How to go about lockdown in an incubator where you add water to the inside?

    Hey there! I have to lock down my incubator soon and I wanted to know how to go about lockdown. My incubator has a little slot on the inside where you put a sponge for the humidity. This means you have to open the lid to insert it. How do I go about this during lockdown? Do I just quickly open...

    Incubator recommendations?

    I’m looking for a new incubator! My budget is about $100, more or less. I’d like it to be automatically turning and preferably I’d like to be able to see the chicks while they’re hatching. All the reviews I’m reading on amazon are so terrible for all the incubators I look at. So I wanted to hear...

    Advice on hatching eggs?

    I have 9 chicken eggs in my incubator right now. They were just put in maybe four hours ago. I am seeking advice on how to increase my hatch rate as this incubator isn’t the greatest one out there. 1: I heard that you shouldn’t turn the eggs in the first 24 hours. Is this true? 2: My...

    Dead egg/embryo? Infertile egg?

    Hey all, this is my first time incubating eggs, and I have a few questions. I candled them today, day 7, and found one with a red ring all the way around a dark spot. I’ll add a pic? Did this embryo pass away? Also, another egg is freckly and hard to see but has what looks like a yolk, with no...

    Eggs hatching at different times- how should I do the turning?

    I was given 23 chicken eggs and 1 turkey egg to hatch for someone. Once the chicken eggs start to hatch how should I turn the turkey egg? For now I'm just thinking of speedily opening up the incubator to turn the turkey egg, but I'm still a little worried. I have the little giant incubator and...

    How long can eggs go without turning?

    I have two batches of hatching quail in two separate incubators. They are a day apart. I stopped turning the second batch a day early. I wasn’t thinking. Second batch is on day 18 with no hatches no cracks no movement. Are they all gone/dead? What do I do with the eggs? Did I mess up because...
