Carolina where do you get those smilies ?

Well maybe my temps are too low

I am dealing with the same thing here! Day 21, no peeps. Had 5 wiggling yesterday. Today I have only seen one wiggle, and heard that one chirp. Hope they are okay. Trying to keep busy and not dwell on it!

The temps are a little weird everywhere right now, even under a broody at night I am sure the temps dip a couple of degrees. If you are seeing mostly dark when you candle, then the eggs are likely right where they should be.

This past month it was tough on both broodies and incubating eggs. Out of three doz eggs, only one chick hatched in the bator, none from the broodies (they were setting on fertile eggs from my bantam Welsummers) and all of the chicks I broke open were perfectly fine, no problem with eggs and I am not sure what is going on. Maybe something to do with funky weather. However I am not giving up, I am going to try again.

We have 2 come 2 days early but the rest seem to be on time so far, the 2 that are early are a different breed to the rest, so maybe not only temps but breeds can have an effect too

It's day 22, I was hoping to wake up to at least a pip... Nothing, no wiggling no chirping. I don't understand what happened. 5 were wiggling two days ago.
