Its only day 3, right? The darkening in the egg is promising tho. The earliest I candle is day 5. Lots of luck!

Hey @ButtonHoarder

I'm just responding so I can watch your thread. I will be incubating my first shipped eggs in (hopefully) a couple of weeks so watching your progress and the tips you receive is a valuable resource for me.

Good luck with your hatch!

Well some of them don’t look great

I only had time to do about half of them, and maybe five out of those? But some were from my uncles leghorn hens.

Hi I never had luck having any of my chicks live past 1 1/2 months old . I have a trio of tiny Wheaton old English bantams I got from a show. I was told maybe Bc they are to small that it was tuff for me to successfully breed any even though my hatch rates in the incubator and by their broody tiny mom was almost always 100% how sad at least for me. but I wish you the best of luck !!!

Your thermometers read different by one degree F. Do you just split the difference? My thermometers differ by two degrees F. I don't have much success hatching eggs.
