I bought an incubator and hatched 20 beautiful chicks out of 24 eggs. My second hatch is underway and I have had 7 out and 6 have died shortly after birth. The seem a day early to me? Any ideas. Very Very sad!!!

How did you clean the bator after your last hatch? I'm really not sure what is going on but I don't think it's from hatching a day early. I've had a few batches hatch as much as three days early with no chick mortality so I think it's more likely to be a bacterial issue.
