If the rest of your hatch went smoothly I don't think the 87 degree episode will be fatal.

Classless, we lost our BCM while it zipped, had a nice opening and when we took it out, the chick was free of all membranes. I'm worried about the other 12 BCMs we have because they're not rocking/rolling and as vigorous in shell as the lost one. It is especially sad when they make it so far though, it prob. wasn't meant to be.


ladeefire, here's a brooder shot. I apologize to all for the fuzzy shot, unfortunately it was the best one so far. They're on electrolytes and busy but I blame it on the camera and its operator-wish I were more gadget savvy!

Well I still have a bunch hatching but it looks like I have one that is not going to make it he fully hatched but his belly is very bloated looking and red I am thinking he did not absorb the yoke properly? I will probably take it out this evening I am trying to let as many as possible hatch before I open the incubator.
