I ordered 50 eggs, 3 were cracked during shipment. I dropped one a couple days later.
So, 46 eggs that were supposed to hatch on Monday. They started piping but didn't hatch, Tuesday I helped them. Had a total of 17 chicks, lost 4. One hatched itself last night but is still acting like it is newly hatched, laying on its side kicking it's feet. This morning I cracked the rest of the eggs, one deformed chick (might have to cull) 17 infertile eggs and the rest were developing but dead.. I'll take a closer look later but whats the deal??, last batch of 25 was from the same person and I had 12 infertile. 8 hatched and the rest died in development.. Including one thing that was feathered but had no limbs.
My humitity and temp stayed where it needed to be?? I turned them 3 times a day, and I incubated the in cartons
