had several nights that were cold, bator would be 97 in the mornings but I always got it back up asap. could that slow down development?​

 

[Mrs. Feathers]

Yes...lower temps can slow things down. I would not give up hope yet! Keep us updated on how things are going.

day 22 just started. I read on another thread someone finally got a hatch on day 24. Soooooo I will give it more time. Thanks for your input feathers

we are waiting too. End of day 21 I think, I just found out we started our count on the day we set the eggs so I thought yesterday was day 21 and actually it was today
Did I mess up big time by starting lockdown the day I thought was day 18 and it actually was day 17???
The first 2 days of lockdown I couldn't get the humidity above 60% now is had been steady at 65%-66%
I do see a few moving a little (I mean I think my eyes are playing tricks on me) and it is hard to hear any chiping with the fan
what does everyone suggest?
Wait and see?? Hoping they are okay in there and will hatch out soon?
Thanks
PS
Waiting is SOOOO HARD!!

Im not an expert by ANY means as when I started this post I had just put in my first set.. (second set went into lockdown yesterday.. thrid set in lockdown today..lol) But I would say wait and see.. atleast that is what I would do.

 

[Mrs. Feathers]

Good luck and I hope you wake up to pips and peeps tomorrow. I am really wanting to set another hatch....must restrain myself.

 

[PhoenixFeatherFarms]

Im trying to restrain myself.. and my husband for that matter... to stop buying eggs.. lol We already have 2 sets in lockdown with another going in Friday plus around 75is in the incubator and over 100 more on the way.... Yup no more for alittle bit... maybe.. haha
