I candled my eggs today and they seem to be very behind in developent. They should be on day 16 but appear to be more in line with a day 11 or 12 egg. I can see movement in some of them so I know they are alive, but should I just keep an eye on them and put them on lockdown according to date or development? Do I need to be running my incubator warmer? Last year I trusted the wrong thermometer (came with the incubator but sits on top of the eggs) and had 2 of 22 eggs hatch. They hatched several days late. This year I went with the other thermometer (built into the incubator) which puts the temp almost 10 degrees warmer. But these eggs still seem to be very slow developing.
