The crower has me convinced that I should buy ... whatever it is that he has for an incubator and candler. I saw a better price on an auto incubator on Amazon, but it says that it doesn't guarantee that the eggs will be turned the correct direction. Thus it could turn right left, right. Or, it could turn left, left, left, right, left...

The crower? Seriously???

The "whatever it is that he has for an incubator and candler" is the IncuView Deluxe package from Incubator Warehouse. The IncuBright candler that comes in the package is good for lighter colored eggs, but dark eggs might be a bit of a problem for it. The Magicfly candler looks like it would do a better job on all eggs, even dark Marans eggs.

There are many other factors to this though, so I think a happy medium is best.....  remember when reading abstracts and acknowledgements, most times a study is only considering specific areas and not the all around figure.... So you need to research it from every aspect to gain the knowledge you seek to try.  I would love if you could come up with more information, I am pretty much at my whits end with research and need a brain chill.   
 
google scholar is the place to research

In conclusion long-term high incubation
temperature (38.8
o
C) from the 10th day to the end
of incubation resulted in reduced body weight and
decreased yolk consumption of embryos. High incuba
-
tion temperature affected two strains in a quite similar
manner except for minor differences. Results of the
present study have revealed that the efforts to increase
the body weight of broilers should not be limited to
management and care at post hatch period, incubation
factors affecting the performance should be determined
and taken the necessary precautions

so what to do.

@LocalYokelwell I got several whie silkies in my hatch, but one has grey stripes on her back which I am not sure what that fortells.

the striped one is drinking.
@Sally SunshineI thought you meant Kathy, but I wanted to be sure.
@casportpony do you have any suggestions or anything I can read to help me with the chick? Hock won't fully unbend and did not straighten even after splinting two days with 'shoe'. When released it held it up with toes curling a little again.

I am just doing the incubator and the separate candler. And I feel stupid enough in life. Typing your name makes me feel like ... Well, really bad.

I tend to think the "striped" ones are most likely Female
