May Hatch Thread--Fill up those bators n' broodies!

If air cells look good, then set them like you would normally. Good Luck! What kind of eggs?

They are Araucanas. I brought some locally over a week ago but they appeared to be old and I only have 3 developing so I got these shipped.

It has been 7days I was wondering if it is to early to candle my eggs in the bator

After 7 days, with a good light, in a dark room, you should be able to see development. I usually do not cull any eggs yet at 7 days though just because I don't see any. What I do is put any that I am in doubt about at one end of the turner. Then I can keep an eye on them later. In seven days, to me the chick looks like a spider in there.

Jim, That is exactly what I do. I have certain places I put them depending on what I saw, and what I want to watch or look for on next candling. How is your beautiful bunch of chicks?

Everything here is quiet. Lockdown is going wonderful. Tomorrow is day 20. I have my sizzle eggs arriving tomorrow. This is day 12 for Tolbunts. I have a whole row on my turner full of saddle bag air cells. I dont know how these chicks with pip. The 2nd bunch looks as good as my own fresh gathered eggs. Not one wonky aircell. But they were packed so different. Each egg wrapped, then placed in egg carton, egg carton taped up and placed in between layers of shredded paper, double boxed. And not one damaged aircell.
