CH you have issues. you wanted shipped eggs now set them. Your rude to act like this about them after they were gifted to you! Plain and simple RUDE! now knock it off, you cant even candle right yet alone judge what shape they are in! and as you can see I am getting mad, because your not listened to anything I said in our messages.
no no I'm not rude I do know how to candle.I know they where a gift I'm not trying to be rude.I can tell some are ruptured and some look like ruptured saddle shaped air cells
Thank you! He is my number 2 chicken farmer in training. I kind of can't stop reading about chickens and hatching.
I gave myself a crash course then found a nice backyard chicken guy on CL and jumped at the chance to get started. Adding a wet washcloth seems to have helped stabilize both temp and humidity. I also stole my kids' humidifier and put it on low beside my apparatus.
it's at about 45%, and from what've read a little low is better than high? Instead of hand turning I'm rotating a box around to each side to angle the set-up. The eggs are in a cut-down paper carton.
thats awesome! He is adorable! I will take him any day! let me know if you need my addy!
see this about humidity if you have standard breed eggs in that air cells are good, perhaps that is a bit high again read the humidity link........ a shamwow is a good wick to use and I think they have them at the dollar store!

so what if they are saddle shaped! ruptured is one thing a rolling air cell end to end is another! and you cannot candle and you do NOT understand this yet obviously this is why you need to stop this not setting them crap!! I told you we would figure it out... start to practice candling your own eggs for now! and figure out how to do it correctly and what you should see. and research the info we give you AWHILE instead of whining about the eggs!!
