Well for one you do not need to candle till day 7 ....
I am guessing you are opening the incubator day's 1 - 6


So what is your temp set at ???????

Is the incubator in a non drafty room ????????

 

[kiralouise21]

No just 3-6 it's in a non draft room in the house the rooms stayed at a set tempreature and the incubators stayed at 37.5 the lids been replaced if an egg has been taken out

from the pictures the eggs dont look fertile

 

[kiralouise21]

Is this a fertile egg

It's too blury to tell. Here are some examples. You're looking for a bullseye.

A dot is infertile and a bullseye is fertile
