Im on day 27 with my 9 Narragansett turkey eggs. At day 10, all 9 had love my inside while candling. At day 17, only 7 had visible movement. Day 24, when I got them ready for lockdown, only one had visible movement. I've also had a really unusually hard time raising my humidity with this hatch. I absolutely cannot get it above 65 percent. The day they went into lockdown, my husband told me that when he bought them, the guy took them out from under a hen, so I'm not sure if that made any difference. I was told later on, that hen hadn't built her clutch yet, so she hadn't actually started nesting them. I know they're not due until tomorrow, but I've been doing lots of research and see that turkeys usually hatch a day early. Still not one pip though. I'm just so worried something has gone wrong and none will hatch. Is there anything I can do, besides be patient? Which I'm bad at, btw..lol
