2019 Emu Hatch-A-Long

@Pyxis Sorry to hear about the eggs sitting out in the cold :( Hope that doesn't negatively effect the hatch. I did a bit of research earlier and people have managed to hatch refrigerated chicken eggs, so I would assume the same is possible for other types. They had to be warmed to room temperature before they started incubating them.

I think it'll be okay :) The packaging probably insulated them very well. They were cold, but I wouldn't say they were freezing, so fingers crossed it didn't affect them.
 
Weight loss for yesterday:

Doing okay for the smaller two eggs, which I taped, but the humidity was too high for the bigger eggs. So, humidity will be decreased again, and weight loss checked tomorrow. If necessary I'll tape the smaller eggs a little more.
 
The end of the first week is here, and weekly weigh in is done. All the big eggs lost too little, and the small eggs too much, but I already knew that was going to happen. Good news is I think I finally got the humidity nailed down for the big eggs. The small eggs I've added more tape to, to keep them from losing too much, hopefully.
