Your incubator temp it probably too high. You need to calibrate a thermometer and check the temps in your bator.My eggs have been in the incubator 12 days and one is really moving. Is this OK?
It’s possible that they were growing before you got them, but it’s impossible to know if they all were. You could candle them, but if you’re new to this, you won’t have a comparison in your mind to judge by. Also if they are close to hatching, you don’t want to open the incubator. I’d say it’s a judgement call, and if an egg is rockin and rollin on day 12 it doesn’t bode well for overall success.that sounds far too technical for me. I was wondering if they started incubating before I got them as they came from a friends free range quail and it has been very hot here. Should I move lock down forward? if so how would I adjust the brinsea . HELP!!!!
Candling will help you assess where in the development process the eggs currently are. I'm betting they are all close in development since you got them from the same source. The rockin and rollin egg indicates that one may be getting in position to hatch...you may need to increase the humidity in the incubator for a good hatch for that egg. If you candle the others and they are mostly clear, that indicates they were not fertile, or if partly clear, they are in another stage of devlopment and not ready for hatching. I'm betting that if you candle the rockin one, its mostly dark with only an air cell thats light on the side they will break the shell thru..indicating its far along(ready to hatch)... There's lots of stuff in the Articles->Learning center about all the above tooYes I have the manual, will candle tonight and then what???????
Mini !! advance. On loan from a friend who has had no problems with itWhich model of brinsea do you have?
