Hello everyone...
I've bought a new 48 egg incubator and put 36 eggs .
Their temperature is good but I think the humidity was high.
Today(fifths day) I candled them but there weren't any veins .
Did I killed them or should I wait...
By the way on which day of incubation should I candle them....
Thanks for replying

By day 5, you should be able to see veining, if the eggs are fertile. No veining would mean that the eggs are not fertile.
 
The humidity is a bit high, but it's not that big a deal so early on. And just because you have two roosters doesn't mean that the hens will choose to accept their sperm. Hens can reject and expel it. And if the roosters are young, they may not be hitting their target. That's something that can take some boys months to figure out.
 
so the eggs seem to be infertile...
do you know anything about my incubator,, is it good?
how many eggs should it hatch out of 48 If they are fertile?
:)
 
Did you calibrate?
It is VERY important to calibrate your hygrometer and thermometer

What kind of eggs?
Your humidity seems too high, if that readout is to be trusted
