I don't candle the 1st time till day 7, then again at 14, then 18. Sometimes I will pop another candle in at day 11 if I had some eggs in question from day 7.

If they do both develop, PLEASE video them hatching.

It would be awesome to see!

Picking up a dozen or so Buff Orps and "barnyard mixes" next weekend. Incubator this time unless I have a hen go broody.

Just had my first experience with a stinky egg. Opened the bator to do a quick candle and eww! Found the culprit quick enough though. One of the eggs my MIL gave me. I saw a pinprick where it was weeping close to the bottom so in the trash it went. Bator smells better now. She gave me 4 eggs and I'm pretty sure she washed them first.

They were way too clean so I'm not surprised I had a stinker. Looks like only 1 is developing so far at 7 days. Also took out a banty egg that had developed a blood ring a couple days ago but I gave it a little longer just in case. No change other than everything sinking to the very bottom of the egg and no veining. On good news though I added another EE egg.

So final count in the bator is 1 Banty, 2 EE, and 4 RIR x eggs.

Seramas are also good setters, aren't they?
