On day 3 of trying to hatch an egg in my boobs

If I needed to boost humidity at all I could take a warm wet rag and place it in my bra as well but not on/touching the egg. I bet that would work.

That might work but I would be careful because it may also lower your temperature. I'm a spaz about keeping humidity just right and I wouldn't tell you not to worry if I thought it would be to the chicks detriment but I really think in this case there's no reason to worry about humidity in the boob-bator. Perfect humidity built in. lol

Are you going to post a video of the incubator you are currently using?

Chick is getting bigger! I can see the eye!

I'm not crazy, right? The egg is definitely growing? Lol I was super certain but a friend said it looks like a bad egg and now I'm nervous

Video incoming! Sorry it's kind of crappy quality. :/ I can't seem to get it to show up properly.

Today makes day 7.

Styrofoam and cardboard are both better insulators than plastic IMO

But it really chafes the cleavage. How about silicone?

My husband thought a picture might be helpful ....

I use my microwave as an incubator....just kidding.

The internet is like a holiday dinner with the relatives...and there’s always that one crazy aunt....

I think eggy may have quit on me.

It's been at the same size for two days and today the shape of the baby inside looks...blurry, almost like it's melting? The eye is hardly visible anymore.

How can I tell for sure?

By sticking it back in the incubator and waiting.

I have my dog helping me incubate now. I'm wearing several layers to keep the warmth in and she's curled up right against my chest warming the egg too.

Baby has not quit!!! I repeat, baby has not quit!!! Candled just now and he is moving and kicking like an eggbeater swimming into the egg a little ways then back!

I think you're a little bit nuts, but I'm rooting for a good outcome!
