This is a first for me. I have had exceptionally good luck hatching shipped eggs in an incubator. I usually get better than 90%. So I kept these eggs at about 25% humidity. I think my temp may have been low for this hatch. I think my incubator is dying. Most of the babies pipped internally and died. When I opened the eggs there was a light brown tinged syrup that came out from inside the membranes. The eggs from my flock (10) hatched except for 2 which also looked the same as these. I am going to try again. Was this likely low temp related or humidity issue? Or something else???
Thanks!!
