Thanks Rexy. I don't know what went wrongI had better success in February , but this hatch sent me looking for answer. There is a great incubating article in the learning centre on this site. Could be insufficient turning, humidity.. Etc etc etc. you get my drift.
). I am currently in the middle of a hatch - great timing. We all do the best with the circumstances we have. My candler was a bit low on power (batteries), so I may have put some in which should have come out at lockdown. Que sera, que sera.
Quote: O.K, what we think was she had a cut ( right near her vent ) or a cyst. Then when she was out over night the flies got into it and you know what fly eggs turn into. It has been really hot around here the last few days which didn't help and by the time I found the sore it was really quite bad.
We bathed her and cleaned the wound then we turned her over one last time and she started fitting ( dad reckon's blood poisoning or shock ) and that was the end.
and colorful :-/
