How cold can eggs get?

[RoosterJuice]

It's very cold up here in Canada and I can only check on the eggs so many times a day. I go out in the morning and get the majority of them warm but a few are laid throughout the day and when I get to them they are very cold, not quite frozen but very very cold. Can I still incubate these eggs? Thank you.

As Long as they do not freeze some have no problem hatching them or eggs that were put in the fridge. I got a Friend in Canada that is hatching a Hundred or two a week right now----I do not know how she collects the eggs(probably often) but she NOW---with a little coaching---She is having some great hatch % (90 to 96%) but I feel she will get closer to 100%. Collect often is the best for sure!!

That's excellent.

That's excellent.

I am very Proud of her Amy----she just sent a e-mail where her last hatch was 173 hatched out of 181 eggs. She was having some bad hatches---doing great the last 3 or 4 hatches---she is the one I mentioned with 13 kids/14th due.

I was pretty sure that's who you were talking about. Glad your help worked for her!
