Hi,

I am new here and in the middle of my first hatch. So far in over 24 hrs I have had 13 eggs hatch. I am wondering if the other 23 are going to hatch or if I have duds. I also have 18 hens,3 roosters,3 ducks and a guinnea who I am hoping to find a mate for.

The others should be fine. . . You just gotta have patience.

Oh, I thought that meant that they were dead. Glad to hear that. We are really enjoying the egg hatching.

from Ohio. Did you candle the eggs to see if anything was growing in them? Some just take longer than others.

Yes, we candled but our candle isn't high tech. Also, most of the eggs are brown. I have 13 in the brooder and 1 hatching. My dd said she heard another peeping. We did open the incubator to get the chicks out as they were really running the other eggs over.
