That sounds like you'll be better set up next time. There is a thread here in this forum at the top - with a little padlock next to it - called Read Me's on Hatching. Go read those links and look at the pictures.

I'm sorry your first hatch didn't go well. Keep trying you'll eventually get it.

You can candle brown eggs! The really dark brown is hard but lighter ones are okay. Make sure your farmer knows you are planning to hatch eggs so he doesn't put them in the fridge. And he should have a rooster! No rooster=no chicks.

Sounds like you might have ordered eggs to hatch.. If you did, then you got crap eggs..

The ones that I ordered turned out duds.. the ones my hens and turkeys layed, I have had good success with those at the same time the bought ones..

So toss and don't think to much about it..

You might get good next time, but lucky if you do..

Good luck,

Oh,, keep trying..

Those eggs didn't make it past day 1 or 2. Either they were infertile, stored improperly, too old, or your incubator was not set up properly and you cooked them all on day 1. Most likely though they were no good when you set them or you'd have had something start to grow.
