Hands on hatching and help

Well I now have two Isabelle leghorns out and four brown split to Isabelle. This is opposite of what people are used to hearing but...everyone think roostery thoughts for the Isabelles.

LOL. It'll be the one time they all turn out pullets... but we'll keep fingers crossed....lol

LOL right? That is exactly what happened to me when I was getting into cemanis - couldn't get a cockerel to save my life! Had to buy a grown rooster.

well 3rd one is out with the others under the lamp and had to go get a bigger thing to put them in so next one out will be a different one out, looks like start of the 4th external pip finally

That doesn't bode well, accidently fell asleep 6 hours, as everything was stable for and in the fan forced it spiked up to 102 assuming for quite awhile as humidity dropped from 78 down to 55

temp spike killed 9 4 were clear and got 3 that when checked were still barely moving. wetted the membrane down only 1 pipped just below so opened small whole for it to breath but these 3 still got a lot of veins, replaced in incubator

would it be better to replace the digital controls with a manual set up, with the humidity requirements here? when we get a final result with these 3

Not sure what you mean?

only seem to be having issues with temps after it goes into lock down with having to run around -75-80% humidity and of course only if I fall asleep. so trying to figure out whith the higher humidity requirement here how to counter it

time to finish that cooler hatcher I guess and move them there when I stop turning, will have to figure the mechanics of that out as it won't have the fan
