Well my last hatch went great I had 100% hatch rate this set of eggs were replacement eggs from a breeder. Out of 12 eggs 9 were infertile and I kept humidity at 47 to 50% the first 18 days then had humidity at 66 to 69 the last 5 days (i let them sit for a few extra days) still air with both tabs out at 101 the entire time. the three chicks that i opened had absorbed their yolks, membrane was still moist but the chicks were dead no pip in shells. What did I do wrong? last two hatches were perfect exact same temps and humidity...
 
Well you let nature take it's course.

Drag...

Better luck next time... sounds like you did everything right.
 
This happens. Earlier on in the season I had great hatches. Doing the same things now and failing to hatch much.
Heat during shipping, too much of or lack of humidity can have a lot to do with it.
 
My experience with this happening I am attributing to lack of oxygen. Especially in a still air styrobator. Increase circulation of fresh air.
