no worries the tics I found today and last night were way to big to be babies.

Ok, I added more! Got through the fourth night.

Pirates and crocodiles and Speedos, Oh my!

Some looked like day 16-17 eggs, some had draw down. Everything with draw down went to the hatcher. Everything else stayed in the bator. I guess it's an experiment. I was afraid they'd drown if I put them all into lockdown before they looked ready. It's the LG still air, so I'm sure they were in cold spots.

I'd leave them, and check them a lot. If ya just set the candler on top of the eggs, if your still using the LG with a lid that can be just cracked open a bit, it won't hurt anything.


Of course, that's just what I would do, and I don't have much experience!

What about air cells?? Did they look OK, or too small still? If too small I would definitly keep them there.

Leave them in the bator? Check them for draw down then take out the turner? That's pretty much what I think I'll end up doing.

Some were small, and there was quite a bit of space between the shadow chick and the bottom of the AC, and lots of veins. That was the most extreme. I'm up to 13 with draw down, so they're in the hatcher. 12 are still cooking.
