18 Ameraucana eggs 10 hatched (55% hatch rate) eggs were from Texas

3rd shipment:
12 Delaware eggs .. in horrible shape when i received them.. all had loose, extremely large air cells .. several were scrambled.. only 1 made it to lockdown and hatched.. none of the others had any signs of development at all.. (8% hatch rate) eggs were from South Carolina

4th shipment:
11 turkey eggs .. also in pretty bad shape.. lots of detached air cells.. however the eggs did appear to be a lot fresher than the Delaware eggs.. 2 made it to lockdown.. both hatched .. none of the others had any sign of development.. (18% hatch rate) eggs were from Ohio

8th shipment:
12 Muscovy eggs... all 12 look great.. currently in incubator.. eggs were from Ohio

9th shipment:
