Is there hope?

[chickenmom64]

Hello All!

A little less than 50% of my eggs hatched on days 20 and 21. Now at day 24 no more action for the remaining eggs, which looked exactly like the eggs that hatched when I candled them. Is there hope for any of these? Should I remain patient or give up on them?

Hi there!

Just to make sure, these are chicken eggs, right? (Just in case it was another kind of bird with a slightly different incubation period.)

When you candled them, did you see any movement at all?

If these are chicken eggs I would re-candle them if nothing moving then I'd open small holes in the air sac end of the eggs to see if anything is still alive.

I'd wait a day and then follow the advice suggested so far. Good luck! Oh, and

to both of you!
