I set 12 eggs in my new Brinsea Eco. They were placed in two rows of 6 on one side of the incubator. The two in the outer corners hatched a few hours early. Then the others on the front row hatched twelve hours later, working inward to the middle . Of the eggs in the second row the two on the ends and one next in line hatched about 6 hours later. The 3 closest to the fan never hatched despite being left in the incubator a couple extra days.
I opened the quitters to find 3 fully develped chicks. 2 looked as if they'd not absorbed the yolk, and I couldn't tell on the other. Am I right in thinking the temperature was too low? If I raise the temperature, what will then happen to the chicks in the corners? Will it be too hot? I have it set now at 99.5 steady. The under fan temp before was showing at least 99 degrees steady and humidity for lockdown was 65 with some flucuation as they hatched and when I added water. Oh, I forgot to take out the dividers, but they did fine as they hatched. Any comments/ suggestions? I set 6 last night on one side and am going to add at least another twelve this comming weekend. These are eggs I've bought and had shipped, so I want to get it straight. Last time were just practice crossbred eggs from my bil.
