Hi again!!

Finished my notes quite quickly for once cuz we’re close to the finish line and there’s less to observe. Yay almost done wooooooo!!

Can I get a whoop whoop!!!

Obviously this is the final stretch though so let’s keep up the positive energy and cheer these little babies home!

That’s it for my cheer speech, let’s get to the good stuff!

I’ve figured out of the 8 eggs left 3 are most likely Dead In Shell
However this leaves 5 healthy ones, eek!!

Pictures below and like always, let me know what you think!

Pretty sure this one is DIS, no veins and inside looks cloudy

Also DIS for same reason as 11

This one has been DIS for a while I think cuz it’s a lot more clear than the others which would indicate less development before passing.

Enough sad stuff, yay this one is going well! I’m going by veining here and this one has plenty of it!
P.S. added the towel because the light coming through the air cell was making it hard to capture the veins on picture.

Couldn’t get a good shot of 10 cuz of the extra light no matter how hard I tried but trust me, this little guy has veins up the whazoo!

Yay more veins!

Looooooots of veins and even a little shuffle going on inside there!

Happy veiny babies!


I asked this question a few minutes ago but I’ll repeat it just in case.
The gang seems to have lost a little more weight this past week and the air cells seem to have grown more too. Is this because it’s coming down to the wire or is my humidity too low? Is it too late to adjust it? I’m scared of changing conditions and hurting my babies

Also, interesting observation. The DIS eggs’ air cell has a yellow hue, whereas the healthy eggs’ air cell is clear and white. Is this normal or coincidence?

Please share your thoughts as I love to hear from experts what they think!

Should I take the DIS eggs out or leave them?

Thank you for reading!

Whoo hoo! Looking pretty good. Never hatched eggs myself.

Take the DIS out.
Air cell should be fine.

Yeah I think I will, with the new light it’s clear they’re no longer developing

@MarlyMonster I would take the DIS ones out they might burst and ruin the rest of them. They are looking good though. Make sure when you see the internal pip you up the humidity. They have a hard time getting out of the shell. And it takes àlot of patience on your part not to intervene.. I have killed a few that way so just a heads up.

I’m actually not even gonna be home cuz I’ll be pet sitting for some friends down the road which is good I guess cuz I won’t be hovering over the bator every second LOL

How high do you usually do your humidity for hatch?
