I'm so worried that these eggs won't hatch! I know everyone has this anxiety but, does it get easier with experience and knowing what you are looking for and what you are doing?

I took a quick photo of one egg earlier. This is day 16. How does it look? Are things on track?

Thanks! I am getting nervous now and questioning things!
As for the flashlight, I'm using my DH's Milwaukee Work Light. It is 18 volts and works beautifully. The head swivels and it leaves my hand free to work with the eggs.

I am so glad you are taking pics, I love your idea and challenge!!! That egg looks like a clucker! eh, peeper. Can't wait for the final day! Good luck!

Okay I just saw this fry pan method. Can someone tell me how this works and what you need in it.

I never thought a frypan would hold temp? Especially for 21 days. Will the outside temp of the room affect the frypan?

Tell me more prior to buying an incubator this could be worth a try. Fun at least.

Thanks

I just candled also and had to move two more 'full' looking ones into panbator so I can watch them.
I can't take pics till I have a better candling set up....right now it's a small lamp open on top with cardboard cutouts to sit egg in....can't leave egg long as it would get too hot from bulb.
Is it normal to have some so full compared to others and still be same age eggs??

I am following this closely, I just can't wait to see these pan fried chicks!!!!

 

[Dilly]

what sort of thermometer are you using and do you just let it sit in the pan? How about the humitity how or what do you guage that with. Where are you buying these gadgets? I don't want to pick up some cheapy that is not reading accurate.

Thanks

Will someone post a list of what is needed with the exception of the eggs?

Thanks and then I will be looking for some eggs? lol
