So i would say that they were quitters. Sometimes we can't explain why or what happened. I know I feel bad when mine don't hatch. I just keep trying. Just keep trying.

Yes! Sometimes things aren't meant to be.
I was lucky We had 13 eggs under our best hen and she hatched out 11!
Do you have hens. If so when you want to hatch more eggs put them under her it's the most natural and she will teach them to eat and drink. Plus it would give her the satisfaction. So sad praying for you! hopefully next time if you take my advice it will go better.

The hen would have to be broody first, and the eggs fertile.

OP hasn't been on in 6 years.
