Confirming pheasants lockdown

[muddy75]

Ok, nothing hatched this time. Not even one (out of 13 eggs). The eggs were fertile and developing, I didn't candle at lockdown so I don't know at what stage the embrios died. It is very possible that the incubator messed up the temperature, as it was a brand new one and I assumed the factory settings are ok and didn't check with external thermometer. I am not planning to open the eggs, will wait for another day and then throw them away. And the search for pheasant eggs begins again... (This will be my 4th time).

What day is today??? I would definitely candle before throwing out even if you don’t open the eggs. And then check your instruments as soon as you can.
