I have a theory for my late eggs, I think that first week, when I set my first 10 eggs, the incubator was still fluxing pretty wild, it took three days to get it right. It was kinda cool in the beginning, maybe they delveloped a little slower? I don't smell stinkys so I guess they will come out when the time is right...

well i'm down to 3 eggs in the bator.. 2 of mine and a turken from floridamama...

had my first weepy expolding egg tongiht... WHEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG... i have never smelled something that bad.... EVER.............

of the 2 of mine,1 is ?? one is very full so i think it's good.. and i actually saw the turken move, even though it's not as full as the other egg....

i'll check them one more time tue evening before i up the humidity and lock them down...

I'm sorry about the still-alive chick. That's got to be hard, but then, you don't know. I mean, it was due and all. I can just hope it doesn't happen to me... *hugs*
