Easter Hatch Online Hatching Egg Swap

correct. or if you do its not a full turn, just about a 1/4 turn. Egg turners haven't worked for me and some of the other Serama breeders I know. We're about split down the middle whether to turn or not to turn.

Hmmm...hadn't heard that on turning, but I turn by hand so they only get turned 2-3 times per day. Humidity is what usually gets mine. Anything above 40% (even during lockdown) drowns the poor little things.

I do dry hatch & don't raise humidity at all for quail or serama. They are so tiny they just can't handle the extra moisture.

I have a very simple incubator so I do the dry hatch method. This will be the first time hatching from my own seramas. I have a rooster that I hatched out from a swap last year and one hen from another. My thinking is if you are able to hatch at least one your good. I also only turn my eggs 2 times a day. Once in the morning and once in the evening. And I hand turn them.

[COLOR=FF0000]I'm confused who sent what and what they might be. Do you recognize anyone of these. I do have them in groups of how I received them. If any are from the mystery swap can just let me know what group of eggs? I've gotten my WYGS swaps and this Easter swaps all mixed up.[/COLOR] The white eggs are TJ Fertile eggs

Me! I recognise some of them! . Bottom right dozen.

I have my lone little egg in an egg carton and am only shifting it side to side 2-3 times a day and it seems to be ok so far...of course I do that with all my shipped eggs

I have to admit, this mystery thing is kind of making me crazy, lol, at the same time, it is fun!!! That said, I still hope I find out eventually what kinds of eggs I got????
