Update have incubator built and put in first hatch. Kept temps between 99-100 and humidity around 45 for first 18 then bumped up to 75-78 for last 3 days. Started with 30 eggs candled at day 8 (have dark shells) and all but 12 were looking good. On the 3rd day of lock down had 2 start to hatch one had small beak sized hole other had half of shell cracked open left to hatch over night and checked next morning. The one that had half of shell broken had stoped moving so checked and was dead. The one that had small hole had made no progress so assumed was dead too. Checked anyway and was still alive but very weak. (had to help told my self not to but had to) Checked the rest 2 days later and all but 2-3 were full developed. (Happened on last hatch with LG incubator I bought) Any one have an idea of what happened?
