Candling Results!!!

[chickenman17]

It is day 8 and I candled all 42 eggs in the Genesis. There are only about 3 that I think are clear!!!

That leaves about 39 viable eggs! Yay!!! Wish me luck!!!

P.S. 2nd hatch of the year in my new 1588 Genesis Hovabator!

Thanks! I finally decided to boost my confidence and use my own eggs. I had terrible hatch rates with shipped eggs. I won;t give up though.

I am using eggs from 3 different sources including some from my own flock (mine are all developing, which surprises me!)

You will find that the ones that only have to travel from the coop to the bator hatch MUCH better. For obvious reasons. And I dont want anyone I bought eggs from to read this and think it was their fault. Every shipment was packaged very well. The PO on the other hand, clearly played soccer with one box.
