Hi guys,
I decided to incubate some eggs while stuck in the house and all was going very well up until a couple of days ago. I had ten eggs at the beginning and 3 were infertile so that brought me down to 7.
Candling and weighing them showed good development and by the 19/20 th day I heard peeps and noises. Then it all went wrong.
2 hatched fine and 1 had some troubles but pushed through (its very weak right now so I am scared it will pass away). And that's it. The other 4 eggs show no signs of moving piping or... anything. I plan so move the 3 hatched to a brooder soon.
What could have gone so wrong? Feels awful having so much power over such little things. Thanks for any advice in advance.
The only thing I can think of is where I live has very high humidity as I live on an island but does it really have this much of an effect?
