i am incubating 5 WH and recently one of the eggs had been getting 42 degree and the other 37.5, We swap their places in the incubator but it still gets rlly hot despite the others being in the same place and being fine. Is it dead? Please get back

Did you candle them? are you rotating them regularly? and did you set up the incubator early and let the temperature regulate properly? 42c is very hot.

also what is your humidity?
do you have a fan moving the air?
is it a homemade incubator?

Yes we turn them, 5 times a day, candled them and they r are big and growing, humidity is like 25% but we are spraying them twice and are doing dry incubating, the top of the egg is 42c but then we test the bottom of the egg and its like 33c we will candle them again tonight

Yes its a home made one and no we have no moving air but have loads of vents at the bottom and top

I'm not sure what WH means. If they are chicken eggs, why are you spraying them? Do you see veins and movement when you candle. How's the air cell? The point of a fan is so you don't get hot spots, it's not for ventilation. By rotating, them meant moving them to different spots in the incubator. If you have no fan, it's best to move them around to keep growth even.
