I ended up with 6 hatching. 2 have leg issues, but one is very minor. It has a leg that keeps slipping out from under it so I used a bandaide to keep them together until it is strong enough to keep them together on its own. The other one is not looking too good. Its legs go in oposite directions. I bandaged them together but it only made its legs stick out behind him. So I put him in an egg carton cup with its legs facing forward and used a bandaide to keep it from moving. It is pretty mad and chirpy because of that. I hope it helps.

Congrats on the chicks sorry about the leg issues. I have one ive been trying to help.Taped her legs together she seemed to do pretty good so itook the tape off .Her legs is now sticking straight out in front if her .She cant walk just flaps to where shes going.Tried retaping but doesnt have lasting effects.So i guess im gonna do some praying and end it for her tomorrow.My dad or my husband will. just have to suck it up and do it.

First 11 i tested in the ultrabator are now in lockdown. Trying to balance the humidity in the bator to something acceptable for both the eggs still incubating and those getting ready to hatch. Im sitting at 62% right now.
