Pretty amazing.

I would think your incubator has been running a bit hot. Nonetheless...it worked amazingly well!

Does heat affect sex ratio? I thought I read somewhere that higher heat can increase the amount of males. Or is that goldfish? Hahaha I forget! I've bred and read up on too many animals to remember.

What was your temps and humidity for incubating and lockdown? Dry hatch? Inquiring minds want to know!

Temp range from 99-100.5 humidity usually around 47% to. 55% really didn't.change it for lockdown because they were all pipping before I could lock them down. All eggs were hand turned on their sides. I try to turn three times a day but hard to do with my work schedule but always at least twice a day. I have a Sears redwood incubator.

congrats!! My silkie hatched 2 days early, she/he is almost double the size of the other chicks from the same hatch. 100 is the best!!! (I never hd one except with ducks)
