Hatch-Along - Eggs set in November, due December, anyone?

[Keric]

Thankyou 3D and kats

Keric good to hear they all are doing OK, about the air cell on the side, I have read that people stand the egg in carton position blunt end up, then the air cell adjust back to its position, read a little before doing it

I was thinking that but needed some advice on if it would work...
THANKS!!

AAAWWW ..That little guy is so cute!!! DOES look like he'll be a sumo wrestler What darling children ....So sad about the little girls bio MoM but the child is lucky ... she has a wonderful home now..

My Son and daughter in law have adopted from China twice. Now 2 and She had been found less than a day after she was born under a bridge abandoned. in October she had a cleft palet..
The other had a heart problem that has been fixed. The chinese have a limit of one child if you live in an urban area so most want a boy.Abandon the girl babies
Good news is many ppl are adopting from China and there is a long wating list .....years....
Both were VERY uinderweight when they recieved them .The youngest didnt even know how to chew food
Had only had bottles 4 tmes a day and a little rice the chinese had said since she was born and she was 2.

Couldnt walk at all.... CrawledI In a few months she has taken off a healthy glow to her cheeks and starting to gain well. walks around and even rund and is less and less unsteady near normal now ...6 months later..Both now litlerally glowing with healthy regular AMERICAN girls...
These little girls are SOOO lucky to have the family they have. too
Well back to chickens

So sorry abiout your eggs. You were so excited i feel so bad for you
.I kinow how it is my first hatch..didnt hatch either!! Was so excited couldnt believe i got ZERO!
Your humidity may have been too low. 65 would have been better at the end but idid have one start to hatch star crack... at 45 humidity once then moved it to the lockdown bator

.You need an eggtopsy to see when they died so you know what you might change next time. If your temp was 99.5-100 or about then only thing could be humidity or they were infertile However the eggs are VERY senstive to a constant temp for the first 18 days A LOT of wild extended swings can harm them especially high temp temps over 101.

Didnt read your last page comment

OH 3 D GREAT!!

They are just a l ittle late! Who knows you may yet get a few!!!!So happ yfor you!!

This egg i might let it sit big end up the whole hatch in A part of an egg carton... rather than down .That way it will be in position to inner pip.
Have to say idont think i have this happen but my eggs are always brown it seems and cant see well inside but others have.
I have read on here they can still hatch but yes it should be up to do so i think,.

I guess mine are running the other end of the spectrum.

I was getting ready to have a shower and I heard a noise. Thought I must be going crazy and there it was again,

I went over to the bator and I have two external pippers!! Its just one third of the way into day 20 but they probably wont hatch till midnight.

Exciting stuff!!
