Diary & Notes ~ Air Cell Detatched SHIPPED Chicken Eggs for incubation and hatching

[3Dchicken]

16 days! How will you handle it...maybe this will help.

I was just wondering... We had a hatch in a forced air homemade incubator and the humidity was very high in one spot, just above the water bowl. A friend of mine explained that it had something to do with the direction the air was circulating and the placement of the water. Drowned a poor chick on that spot

When she pipped through the shell water poured out! I was amazed she got so far and survived, but she died in the shell.

The buses from school were two hours late getting to school. I am so tired. Apparently there were accidents everywhere due to poor road conditions. My mom said that she has seen a total of 7 car accidents today. The roads are so icy, I could barely walk outside. Even when the roads were salted a tonne. wowowowowwow. Hope is chilling with me. :3

whoa I hope all those people in the accidents are ok!

We had a terrible storm blow through with tornado watches everywhere and the wind was so strong that it blew my umbrella inside out! I think there was more here than there is in a waterfall! And to make things worse, the power went out, the roof started leaking, there were accidents and sirens everywhere, and I didn't get my eggs! >.< GAHHHHH

Wow. Just went to check the eggs and humidity is reading at almost 70! It's only day 18. Do I need to let some of that out????

It's also possible I put the hydrometer too close to the water well, would that change my reading?

it may very well change your reading, mine does when I do that!

They should be O.K. The incubator we used was a really carp design, I must say. DH ended up practically rebuilding the thing and it wasn't even ours, we did the hatch and the improvements for a friend.

I just thought of that incident now when I read your post. Good luck with the hatch! I can't wait for mine to go into lockdown. Only...16 days to go

Harmony has two serama pipped BEFORE lockdown day 18, the time mark was 9pm for lockdown tonight....SO more than likey they are all shrinked, uggggg its has to be the powerful fan in the bator, I thought since I was going to have her use the Styro to hatch in they would be ok!! UGGGG I just dont have it in me today to mess with them tonight, so I pray some make it out on their own for her.

ADDING... Anyone think it would work to put a dimmer switch on the fan to slow it down, or wont that work?
