ANOTHER failed hatch

Ok, I went and looked at your thread on your bator. I don't think fresh air is an issue, since you drilled holes and I'm assuming you open it to turn them at least 3x a day. What are you putting your eggs in? Do you have more than 1 hygrometer? I noticed in the pic there was a styro carton closed up, this is not the way your eggs are incubated is it?

These are incubator egg tray, note all the holes for air flow.
Before I got these I used eggs cartons, and paper egg trays. One things you need to do is remove the top of the peaks,and cut small hole at the bottem. where the egg sets. the better air flow around the eggs the better.


Hope this helps.
 
I actually cut my pulp cartons to look similar to that egg tray, but you have to be careful because it loses structural integrity and becomes a little flimsy. I just make sure I use 2 hands to move them and not to cut out too much, would hate for them to tear
