Hannah.
My phone won't let me take pictures of the candling in the dark.

Pretty. Yeah those are hard. SS?

Yeah...they happen. :/ Maybe you're not getting a correct humidity reading?

Yeah. Possibly but I did calibrate those, I might redo it though.

 

[HeavensHens88]

Indeed they were. Yeah, kinda look black to me.

Me either. Maybe but it ran 30 to 25 almost the whole time which is why I don't understand why the air cells were so small, my first batches ran 40 to 30 and hatched just fine the batch before was subjected to the same conditions and I got 9 of 11 and they hatched on time. It's just one of those batches I guess.

Yeah...they happen. :/ Maybe you're not getting a correct humidity reading?

Incorrect humidity has been the ruin of me numerous times.
Once, the wetbulb read 50% during the entire hatch and I came to figure it was really only at 20%!!!!!

It can't hurt! I guess it was just one of those hatches that happen sometimes.

Nice! Both.
Pretty!!

Yeah. There was never condensation during the first 25 days, there was only condensation after the ducklings hatched on day 30.

Uh oh!

I do dry incubation when hatching chicken eggs, it's great!

Weird. Maybe lower humidity next time at lockdown?
