Oops... I meant 'air cells'. What size were they this time?
Those machines are often wired to require a much too high humidity for some nutty reason. Kind of annoying. SOME people can get away with 50% humidity, but I don't know many. It's mainly those with cabinet bators. Elevation impacts it too.
My oops! I should have read that slower

The air cells seemed to be getting bigger like I remember last hatch. The last that I could make out just before lock down was around the top third of the eggs, but it was very difficult to see. I was tracing them but the shells were so thick I must need a brighter light, could hardly see anything the last time I went to check. They all three had a slight saddle to some degree, though, since the beginning. I just chalked it up to shipped eggs.
I may need to just let it run dry & tolerate the beeping from now on. The quail used to hatch with no issues at all in that thing, but quail are sorta bomb-proof, I recon. These are the first pure breed I've had in there & only the second non-quail eggs.

I guess I are still teh n00blet...
