@Leihamarie, the person that have it to me lost a bunch of eggs in it too. What incubator did you end up getting and are you happy with it?

I ended up going with this small one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XX5P6VX/?tag=backy-20

I've only completed two hatches with it so far, but so far so good. It's small, but it's stable and I can see what's happening during hatch. The humidity can be a bit finicky but I have several alarms set to check it and I modify based on air cell development anyway. I set five chicken eggs 18 days ago and all are still developing well. We'll see what the hatch holds!

I hope this hatch goes well!

I have owned and used their incubators they are decent basic units actually the hard plastic is more stable to the Styrofoam in my book

I have found the humidity to be quite stable

But for whatever reason I can’t get ANYTHING to hatch reliably.
To the point I started hatching ONLY in my hova bator and my rate went up greatly

however it works I encourage you to keep doing it

Is today hatch day?

I think I set them 7-4, but they were partially incubated by a duck, so no idea when they are due.

Keep our fingers crossed then
