How are your twins? I have a set of twins and I am worried sick that I may loose one or both.

Yes I would like to know too here is my double yolk egg that didn't make it. I had it in a large untested homemade incubator. I use small homemade ones now that hatch great! I came up with brand new idea just today and I am testing it out (without eggs) right now. I am like a kid in a candy store with my bators!!!

well, you look like you have twins, don't be too scared if they move around and you see more movement, I have been tricked by yolk sacks thinking they were and ex chick- might still be just the 2

This is my first time incubating chicken eggs and I have an egg that looks exactly like this when I candle It a more oval shape than the other but a smaller egg. Their a little under 2 weeks from hatching I would really like to do everything I can to make sure they hatch, any tips I’m worried about the size of the egg and their being two in their do twins normally have any trouble hatching?
