Failed hatch

[randerson846]

About 4 weeks ago i had 14 eggs set them in the incubator (got them from a local farmer) and i candled them at day10 and only 6 wer fertile so iremoved them and left the six i kept them at the right humidity right temperature turned them three times a day and it got down to the 18 day so i stopped turning them but on the 20th i had to go to a camp so i had to leave them but family was there watching them and they were meant to hatch the next day but they didnt and then the 22nd nothin but on the 23rd one peeped but died shortly after and nothing happened so on the 25 i threw the eggs out i was soo disappointed and i dont know what happened.

Ohh by the way my mum turned the eggs on the 21st day by mistake only once though could that of effected it in any way

how long was the fan broke? there is still hope depending on the breed it may take longer or shorter to hatch. 21 days is just the average. if the eggs cooled down to around 80 it could slow down the hatch but if you got down to around 70ish or lower they might be dead.

you could have left them in a little longer. my friends chicken hatched babys at 6 weeks.

Turns out that the incubator had brokeon around day 4 , i decided to do an eggtopsy on day five ( opened up the egg) and the most developed chick was about the size of a 10 c coin... I went and bought a new, bigger, better, fully autamatic incubator and ill be trying again soon. xx
