Cold eggs

[ChickenCanoe]

Sorry the first 2are at day 23 and the other two are at day 20. The incubators inbuilt thermometer reads 38 but it doesn't feel warm in there any more There's no reading for humidity it doesn't have it.

OK so cold eggs are a problem after day 7. However, at this stage of incubation, embryos can handle more temperature deviations.
Is the incubator thermometer the only one you have?

Yes, but I'm training him now after reading an article about the pecking order, I've been chasing him back and holding him down to show him who's boss. It's working so far

Please keep us updated on Nasty Jeff's progress.........

Hi, yes it is but it's gone back to 37.5 now. And the eggs are warm. Hopefully I haven't done any damage candling them so there is still some hope

I dread to think what the neighbours must of thought of us chasing each other round the yard especially when I did an impression of an angry bear in front of him. Think Jeff must of thought I'd lost my mind. I'll try anything
