I would not add any if any of theones in are clear. For your first hatch just take whats fertile and growing and wait on those..Staggered hatches are trying enough for experienced people. Id pop those 7 suckers in and give it wirl..do it do it do it!!! COme on were all here routing for you!

Good for you!

If you encounter any problems, most likely someone here can help you!

We're right here with you!

By the way, what kind of chicks will you be hatching?

Yaaay!! Another incubating newbie! I won't be alone when I start mine!

And I know I'm going to be able to count on wonderful folks here to hold my hand through the whole process. I'll even hold your hand chickenmamalp, even though I haven't incubated any eggs myself. But, I have done a lot of reading...so I have the theory down pat!

I can hardly wait till I get to put the whole thing into practice!

youll do great! just practice ALOT of patience and stay out of te bator as much as possible except for candling-I know its hard but its best to have a stable environment for them to grow at the rate they should...
