Stormy, if you transfer from incubator incubation to broody hen incubation, just keep counting as if nothing happened. The reason we don't count the first day as a day is because the eggs are warming up from room temp to incubation temp, and once at incubation temperature, it takes a hours yet for the heat to actually trigger the beginning. If they are already incubating and at temp, there's no reason to delay counting days

@julie: you're not alone with weirdo eggs. i have two with little bubbles in there. one shows a tiny live embryo, the other n i cant tell yet. but i am pretty sure mine are like that cuz i had them shipped.....corner of package was dented <sigh> am surprised any of them at all are making it this far. if the chick is still alive, i would leave the egg in the bator----but that's just me. go with your gut feeling, i say. gooe luck and i hope that one egg in particular makes it for you.

I started incubating my eggs on Saturday the 31st at 4AM. That's early enough to count that as day 1, right? Was planning to do lockdown wednesday at around the same time (I get up early..

All 43 eggs still alive and kicking as of this morning. EEP! Oh, and it appears ALL of my detached air cells are now re-attached, although some are off center. YAY, there's hope!
