What is happening with my hatches? This is the 2nd clutch I have had in the incubator this year. I candled them before lock down and seen movement both times. The first clutch, no hatches. I cracked a couple eggs on day 25 to see if I could figure out when they died. There were live baby chicks, but they had not absorbed the yoke. Today is day 24 on my second clutch, I just cracked an egg. The chick was alive but very weak. What is going on? Last year I hatched 2 clutches, one was an 80% hatch rate and the 2nd was a 100% hatch rate. The temp and humidity has pretty much stayed level during the enitre time. Around 100.5 on temp and between 45 and 50% on humidity until day 18. The spiked the humidity up to between 60 and 65%.
