My Hatching Journey: the Adventures of a Complete Newbie

Oh, really??? I thought the 9300 would be better, thanks for letting me know...

If bama was still around, he would tell you the horror stories from his hatches(fails) in those... he upgraded to a Genesis last year and has been super happy since...

I think AmyLynn has ran into that too... believe the LG she gets good hatches out of is a 9200...

Yeah, you would think newer would be better, but seems when they went digital, they really went wrong for LG's... I do hear of a good one once in a while, but they're few and far between...

So looking back at previous candle pictures and results, 2/3 eggs in lockdown are actually scrambled. They have the same yellow hue. Should I just open the bator and grab 2 of the dead ones? There is no way they are alive.

But if they didn't stink, there's no harm in leaving them...

I checked carefully for smells. Spending hours scrubbing an incubator isn't exactly on my to-do list.

If it bothers you, you could pull them, but it sure won't hurt leaving them in...

Yeah, I'll leave them.... just in case.

Interesting note: The air cells are not very slanted, I had a hard time telling which side was the lower side. (Also a tad small---I might run completely dry next time) Any idea what might be causing that? It was on all 12 eggs.

Hello all!
I am so excited!!! I always have the coop cam on and streaming to my laptop. Today is Day 21, but I really wasn't expecting anything... then I heard cheeping as I walked by the table. There are at least 2 chicks so far!!!
