I will try to see if theres veining on day 7 to make sure that that is working. If I don't see any veining on day 7 I will throw that bator away and buy the best one people recommend me =]

Sometimes your best education is online. I learned more about rocks on EBAY then most people who are behind the booths at the ROCK & GEM Shows

I would be careful and not disturb the eggs too much in the first 10 days. My major mistakes in hatching were always when I was impatient. Eggs are pretty hardy. The hens leaves the nest alot. I accidently pullet out the cord to my Hova-Bator and the temp dropped to 78 degrees and I didn't killed my eggs. Hens do get losked out of their coops so be patient. And wait till day 10 before you candle to be safe.
good luck with the hatch

Oh now I don't like you LOL I'm kidding. I think I need to open up my own post where should I go? I think this person needs to know the truth, they told me they teach a college class on babies life or something along those lines. Thanks for telling me what you think though!

I think you could go to random ramblings?

Ahhh, don't do dry incubation!!! It's pure evil! Only do "dry incubation" if the area you live in has high humidity (like 40-50%).
I used it, and it tricked me 2 or 3 times thinking it was good, but after this last hatch I had with normal humidiy, It made a total difference.
I'm only trying to protect you and your babies!

Good luck
