How was the hatch????

Bator had temp swings again. Got 1 chocolate orp. Had 7 others make it to lockdown or very close & not make it. 1 pipped internally & didn't make it out. "Lucky" is doing well & running all over the birdcage brooder with about 12 other babies close to the same age.

Oh No!! I am glad one hatched for you though! You'll have to send me a picture sometime,
Are you getting temp spikes?
I refilled my water reserve system on my 1502 but forgot I had clamped the line, the next morning my humidity during the last day of lockdown was 30!! I freaked out, it was hatchday. I unclamped it and thought wow I lost the entire batch but I left them in just in case. They all hatched 1-2 days late, a little sticky and I lost 2 a few days later in the brooder. I was so bummed but I can't believe they hatched.

Spikes & drops both. My temps were 80's to 110's. We really need to get insulation back in the walls in this house!!!!
