Beautiful hen. How many hatches have you done?

I have had seramas just about a year now and started with s few babies and hatching eggs. I have hatched various breeds about 10 times. But mostly silkie and seramas. Even with the local eggs I only hatched 2. The larger eggs are much more forgiving of the low humidity and I had little issue with those but the silkies and seramas struggled to hatch and would get stuck when I kept humidity too low. I have hatched 3 batches of my own eggs, my own I had around 80% survive with the lower humidity and some assistance to stuck chicks. I turned the humidity up a bit and bravo 100% healthy chicks. I wish eggs shipped better I would ship but if anyone is interested in local babies let me know. I do vaccinate for Marek's and keep chicks indoors for the first few weeks to limit temperature extremes then garage with lights as needed per weather.

My incubator has the auto turn feature. How does that work with such small eggs?
