Thanks! I can't convince the hubby about building a bigger one til we move. So gotta make do. I have room for a few more. I'll have to share the rest with others. I can probably keep a dozen or so more.

Are you getting ready to set eggs yet?

You DO realize I'm drooling now right??? I will be sure to PM you. I can't wait to have new chickens and fuzzy butts running around.

I am almost positive the two I mentioned are quitters. Should I take them out? I see a dark area, but it's not even half the egg. And they don't look like the other eggs for sure. At this point, I think if they were good they'd be more than half the egg wouldn't they? Is there a chance they'll explode? And one of the detached cell eggs has what looks like a lot of development, but the cell still seems to move. It does not go to the top. Should I lay that egg down so that the cell is on the top that way? I'm not sure what to do with it. Because if I leave it sitting up, and it pips the top, won't it drown?

Also, with the dry hatch, what to bump up the humidity to?

I don't have answers, but best of luck on your pips/lockdown

I'm rooting for you!!!!
