I'm setting another 82 eggs today and am wondering about the success rate for eggs hatching that are Extra Large. My first setting was carefully limited to eggs that were just shy of being large to an 1/8th of an ounce over large. Also is there a survival factor for hatching large + to extra large +. I'm skeptical about setting eggs that are Jumbo as the possibility of having double yolks. One thing that I have proven is that hens don't need to be 12 months old to set eggs from. I can't count chicks before they hatch but this weekend's hatch is looking good with about 60 out of 82 already hatched and most of the remaining have pipped from our first ever setting. My biggest concerns were humidity control and fertility and now we are more at ease on those two factors. I'm just a little unsure of what the outcome may be from setting larger eggs than I did this time.
