did anyone else put eggs in there incubator today

I put in another Bantam Columbian Wyandotte egg today Weeeeee!.I set the 7 showgirl silkie egg's I got Fri. from Eggbid I had 3 Columbian's already in I have only had this laying pair a couple week's and it's been so cold she hasn't left many egg's.I have 3 more set's of auction egg's coming this week.So hoping to build my flock back again.The OE's are still roosting on the wood pile in the basement all warm and comfy, and my silkie's in an old playpen and I am loving my 2 lone cayuga duckling's that hatched this weekend.!Hope everyone has a great hatch spring is almost here:D. DG
 
On day 11 here. started with 15 bantam cochin eggs. was really excited when I started candling around day 4. I just removed more eggs tonight and am down to 7 for sure and 1 maybe. Im already at less than 50% and still have 10 days to go. I hope they all make it. from what I read I may lose some more at hatch. I do attribute my losses to eggs being shipped, as all but one was fertile( I know because of veins) but they are just quitting. just wanted to share my pain. ...
 
i candles my 11 eggs today on day 11 and 9 out of 11 look good! one that didnt look good was cracked and tried wax but i couldnt see anything>>

How's everyone doing?
I'm down to 16 in the bator (from 24). I believe one of those has quit on me, but I'm going to wait it out another day or so.
As far as my unexperienced eye can tell, I'm holding strong at 15. Going into lock down on Thursday!!!!!
 
Lockdown on wednesday, still have 7, I can see them all moving inside. This is going to be the longesssssssssssst week! good luck to all.
 
I think I'll lock down Wednesday night. I had a power outage for a few hours, and then got a Brinsea Spot Check thermometer and found out my temps were a bit low for the first few days so I think my hatch will be delayed.
