Misjudged my New Incubator....

[JazminesZoo]

Well maybe a couple will hatch
I ordered these, Delivery confirmation/Insured/pro packaged (only 2 were dented out of all 290)! Left Texas at 6:15am 11/1 & I recieved 11/2 2:20pm ($20 shipping/handling). Hand delivered by my awesome mail lady, (we exchange canned goods too) Hopefully these were transported the rest of the way good?

Well 290 Chukar eggs.... Put them all in "my custom" individual eggs tray.... Put them in turned on my new incubator YEAH !

UNTIL I pulled a "%#*!!"

Yes after the first rotation, I miscalculated the angle of the egg turner then..... Spill over of about 21 cracked eggs on the bottom of my incubator....

Not to mention a bunch of non-cracked ones that failed to fall
So I re-did the trays AGAIN the correct way..... very newbie

I guess this is why they can't guarantee hatch rate

Good luck with your hatch...

I did Pheasant eggs.

This is how they were delivered. There were a few cracked ones. They didn't have to travel far as I live near Ocala Florida and the eggs came from the Tampa area.

I cannot believe they were not packed "better" ! I was thinking about doing pheasant in the near future, I won't be getting them shipped from Tampa

So sorry that happened, we all have to learn somehow

hope the ones you saved still have a good hatch!!

good luck!

Did those hatch or were they a jumbled mess?

Im thinking the same thing!! It looks like they just dumped them in there from a big bucket!
