Yep they were definitely fertile, i candled them a few times to check progress

 

[coolmind1999]

[Shamo12]

Temperature averaged 38.5 celcius in a still air incubator

 

[coolmind1999]

wow ! leave it another day then candel it if no luck till day 24 its safe to say ur egg didnt make it

 

[coolmind1999]

ahh hah what waz ur hu idy first 18 days and in lock down?

 

[Shamo12]

Humidity was 30-40% day 1 to 18 and from day 18 to now is 60-65% i waa reading now and apparently it can take up to 25 days especially for larger breeds and as the eggs are from o shamo could that be it? Last time my uncle incubated them he saw no movement and pips until day 30 which seems too long but that was one egg and it didnt make it

 

[coolmind1999]

an o shamo? is that a chicken ?

 

[Shamo12]

Yes it is a large game breed from japan

 

[coolmind1999]
