Ok, went in lockdown yesterday morning. But my eggs are not wiggling or moving..........................

should I be worried???????????

I don't want to be worried, but I really am . I keep reading on here, people but their eggs in lockdown and they have movement...

My son told me maybe they are wiggling while I am at work........

I hope he is right

I candled last night, day 17, and 3 were quitters, and there is 1 that is iffiy, and one that I am concerned about. So that leaves me with 14 good eggs!!!

I have a question: I have a banty rooster and standerd hens. The eggs are big but the one chick is not has far developed as the others, meaning the chick doesn't fill up the egg as the others have. Will that be a problem when it comes down to lockdown and hatching??

Why do I always mess up when to go into "lockdown"? HELP!

Put eggs in bator on the 27th at 9 am. So, tomorrow morning in lockdown right?

I set mine on the 26th and just put mine in lockdown...I am going into lockdown with 10 Polish eggs and 9 Light Brahma eggs...I hate this part of it...Waiting and trying not to worry about them..

...Happy Hatching everyone!

Ok - I will remove the turner tomorrow. Are you hatching in cartons? Still trying to decide if I should - any opinions or advice?

day 20 here and no movement or pips that I can see. I hate this part too!

I do not hatch in egg cartons because the brinsea doesn't have a lot of room.
