Hatch A Long with PenguinsCrafts

So, you are not even sure what temp that your incubator is at. That could be your problem right there. I would have added a thermometer in there when I noticed that your egg-o-meter was no longer working. I run 2 of them in mine just to make sure that they match.

The egg-o-Meter was brand new, so I had expected it to last at least one hatch. I hatched once clutch with just the incubator thermometer alone and all went well, and Amazon can't ship me a new thermometer in time anyway so I don't have a choice. The egg-o-meter actually matched the incubator's temp up until a week ago, so it has to be close.

You could buy a cheap one from Walmart. There are Walmart's everywhere.

I have one like this one. It run's on battery, so no problem if power goes out:

I got two pips this morning. Then I realized, I got home from work at 11pm and didn't get the eggs set until around 2 or 3am, for whatever reason I counted it as the previous day. So TODAY is hatchday, I feel like a moron

Three pips so far, one is malpositioned

Today Is hatchday! But I am shocked nobody has pipped yet it appears a Belgian quail egg has rolled a little, but that's it.

YAY Fingers crossed they hatch

Still no pips... I wonder if that power outage a couple weeks ago stunted them?

Maybe a delay?

Not yet, at lockdown everyone was alive and moving around great. How long should I give them before I candle? There are still no pips and no peeping...

Day 21 was yesterday. I woke to pips today. Maybe they will be a bit behind
