I learned a lot during my first incubation process. It was exciting, yet painful.
Final count 7 out of 9. They all
Have yellow dots on their heads and 2 are little miracles.
My second day of hatching was hard. I had one that unfortunately had a shell from another hatched chick, covering its pip hole. I don't know long it had been there, but after being up most of the night, I lost it.
My last egg still had movement, but no pip. It was a day overdo, so I opened it and sadly, it was shrink-wrapped. It died a few minutes after I got through the membrane.
I didn't think I would get this sad, but I feel like they were my babies and I wish I could've done more to save them.
