Anyway, meet my new babies:

This thread always makes my day, all the new baby pics are soo adorable !! Congrats to all the hatched !! :bun:jumpy
My shipped serama eggs are at day 5, I candled three before they went into the bator and all three didnt seem to have yokes, very yellow in there... I just candled again, and only 10 out of 24 are developing :hmm I had them at 99.5F, 40% humidity. Just to be on the safe side I'm raising the temp to 100F, 40%H. My last serama ship-hatch I had a swinging 40-55% humidity and 101.5F, 7/16 hatched, mostly roosters. After lots of reading I thought maaaybe keeping a more stable humidity and temp 99.5F might be better, now I'm doubting everything :confused: I'm really hoping it's just a tad too early for veining, only at day 5 :fl:fl

Day 5 can still be very early to see obvious veining.

I've never tried hatching shipped eggs, but I've heard it can be hit and miss with hatch rates, it sounds like you're doing everything right. The outcome will probably have less to do with anything you're doing and more to do with the quality of the shipped eggs.

Good luck :fl
