Hatch rate isnt going to be told by the incubators unfortunately,
hatch rate comes in the form of fetility,thrivability factor while incubatiing, humidity temperature and turning.
the main factor being fertility,
EX: right now I have 7 Pheonix eggs in the bator, 6 of 7 are fertile and growing, one is a dud.
out of that 6 maybe 4 will hatch and 2 will be in egg faders.or
5 will hatch and 1 will be a fader.
unless he is guarenteed 100 % fertile, and non in egg faders he isnt going to get the results 100 % correct.
I agree but I also think that a good incubator has a better hatch rate. The eggs will be candled, duds don't count He's only a kid doing a class project. I'm sure his science teacher knows all about hatching but he is also incouraging him to do the project. I would have loved to have done something like that when I was a kid. His Mom can't find fertile eggs so I'm helping them out.
i think its a great project, after the 10 day mark he will know what was fertile and what was not and go from there. i sent out my incubators and eggs to 2 elementary school girls, they played music to one incubator and none to the other, unfortunatly that was during the big ice storm and one girl hathed nothing. the other hatched 5-6.
how did you do for eggs? got enough yet? no one is laying here.
