Same here! Unfortunately I didn't know about this until now and set my eggs three days late for this!

3 days is fine…..happy you’re here!

I missed it….what eggs did you go with? What incubator are you using?

Some of my own OEGBs, and a brinsea octagon.

They might be early quitters, but I’d let them ride a few more days at least….check for cold/hot spots in your incubator and consider rotating positions throughout incubation if it seems to be that

I saw them moving so i think they are not dead for sure.. embrio is dancing but they look small for day 9 tho..

They might be in a cold spot.... rotate eggs.

I set 6 Cream Legbar, and they are all fertile! It's too early to tell on my Pavlovskaya eggs, but I set them 4/1. I also have another 6 Pavlovskaya eggs waiting incubator space in my basement.

Definitely try moving it into a different spot! Maybe trade with one that seems really solidly developing. I just did this for an egg that I wasn’t sure was developing but I still had faith it might be. I checked the next night and again tonight and it’s caught up to the others! There are definitely some cold spots that impact some eggs.
