Wow! And nail polish is genius...what is gunmetal? Just the brand or is it the only type pf nail polish that will work to seal up cracked eggs?

Any nail polish will work, that's just the name of the color. Lol, Gunmetal Glitter. When I repair eggs with nail polish they get named after the polish color. Lol

X2. Its as if they're already outside of the egg. I've had power outages for more than 5 hours and almost every little guy I had incubating stayed alive. This was on day 18 with ducks

I have one question: Did you leave the incubator as is, or you did something to warm up the incubator?

I wet a sponge with some hot water and had 2 light blankets on it. Other tan that nothing else

I'm on day 22 for some, day 18 for others. The day 18 ones were the ones I set on March 6 (the mallard derived duck day for the EHAL), for those of you who don't want to do the math. If this isn't considered chicken math, by the way, I wonder if it's called chick math...View attachment 2582842
