Anybody hatching around March 7th? PICS page 9,18

I'm due on Friday. My 1602 has kept a very good consistent temp and humidity. My humidity may have been a bit high, I read the whole dry vs. wet incubation method thread after I had it all set up and thought it best not to mess with it. So far everything seems to be developing fine

I had one go stinky rotten around day 7 and another looked like it had quit at around day 10. But, all others had movement and I could even see feathers and beaks here and there when I candled them.

I have 10 mutts from a friend, these are my testers.
 
Angiechick - that sounds great! I'm using a borrowed Brower TopHatch that's ancient - but it seems OK... I'm just having issues getting that humidity up... it's sticking at about 60% right now with 6 wet sponges and 99.5 degrees on the nose.
 
I thought I would check in here since I have 17 eggs due the 11th. I am a few days behind you all but still close. I candled last night and all were doing great and every single one moved for me so that is great to get to see!!
 
Mudfarm - that's great! Mine all moved for me the last time I candled too... that was day 17 I guess. Good luck with your hatch - is this your first time? (it is for me) Em
 
I've got more Calls I just moved to the hatcher...I'm expecting them on Sat afternoon...this is good because I sold all but 1 duckling yesterday and he is ticked! The sooner he has friends the better!
I'm annoyed though because 3 out of the bunch of 9 don't look quite right...grr...fussy little things!
I can't wait to set my mailed cochin eggs...they should hatch all by themselves! wow! how easy! (If they don't freeze on their way here...

Yep, they seem to be active even in their shells! Every time I go have a peek in on them, the eggs are in a different spot. And with only two eggs, it is pretty easy to tell that they have moved.

Just ending day 19.
