Name the eggs! Choose your baby to root for!

Sounds fine to me. I was gonna candle them ALL (gulp) on Wednesday probably. Idk how long they can be out though, but if I candle them quickly, I can do it all at once? Or maybe I should do one in the afternoon and the second batch in the evening?

I think you should be fine candling them all at once. Just do it as fast (but as carefully too ) as you can.

Shouldn't take long. Maybe 25 minutes tops as long as everything is alright and the eggs don't run off.

Second batch is starting to vein out (We are only on day 3) so was hoping by day 5 there would be more to see.

I agree with @Chive you'll be fine broody mommas take breaks from the eggs everyday of around 30 minutes even after lockdown

Alright. I will also close the AC vent and turn off the fan while candling (like usual) so it doesn't get chilly.

Time for upsies. Come on Charlene...time to do that wiggly growing stuff.

Good morning eggies! Wake up Lucky, it's time for growing school!

Went and checked on them. They have been auto turning (thank goodness for that), humidity was at 51%, and they def all looked bigger. Well. In my brain they did

Outside temp today? Currently 52°F with a high of 82F. I live in South Carolina. Lol.

It was 28 here yesterday morning and 32 today, highs will be in the low 70s. I was just thinking how the eggies are all snug and warm in the incubator, quite a difference from our night temps. My 10 wk old frizzles are still using the heat lamp odd and on through the night and these two mornings one of my little cockerels has been starting his day under the heat lamp before popping out of the box to start crowing.
