Adorable chicky! Is that an outline of the aircell you have on the egg top? I just heard recently about keeping track of how eggs were doing by tracing the aircell when you candled. I don't see how a person has the time to do it if you have very many eggs in...but it seems like a good idea.

Can I change my hatch date to the 24th? I have a second batch hatching then. I didn't take any pictures in the incubator of the ones that hatched on the 2nd. Good thing I have more hatching!

Do you set eggs straight up and down in the brinsea or on their side on mid way??

Count me in...I will post on their page this evening.

Hatch date April 23rd

For my first hatch, I laid mine on their side. Had 9/9 hatch. It is up to you. Chicken eggs can go big side up or on side. I have read that duck and goose eggs do better on their sides.

I settled for inbetween. So they are not up and they are not all the way on their sides. Kinda leaning. I didnt know how tightly to put the rails next to the eggs either.

Lock down was Tuesday on the Blue Laced Red Wyandottes and I surprised with a peep when I got home today. Went out to feed and came in to another one

There are more to go... Due to glare I kept the flash off.
