I bought a dozen eggs online from a reputable breeder. Also bought a new Farm Innovators pro series incubator with turner and humidity/temp recorder. Put eggs in bator (5 days old) on March 2nd. Followed directions to a tee. Temp at 99/100 and humidity at 57/60. Increased both on day 18 and took out the turner. Tried candeling at 7 and 14 days but didn't really know what to look for. Just saw shadow?. Not perfectly clear so I believe they were fertile. Well it"s now day 24 and nothing has happened. Do I take them off life support?? Is there still a chance they'll hatch? What could have possibly gone wrong? This is my first experience into the world of chickens and I must say I'lm very dissappointed. That 3 weeks was like 3 months!! Any input appreciated.
