Set date 7/2/12 ...need hatching buddies

I still have one barred rock/dom mix that is due today. And my 21 black sex link Jersey giants due tomorrow. Then Thursday. And Friday I have 18 more due hopefully my lavender orpingtons hatch.
 
Still no baby out of the one due yesterday. Hope it is just late due to the still air incubator not keeping the temp right. Glad I added a fan to it.
 
Thomas is due, but I expected him late, between the two day power failure and the overheating I have been sortmof figuring him for around day23. He kicked while I was checking him and rolling the others. Here's hoping for wee Thomas, the Little Orp That Could!

I have one of my barred rock/ dom mix hatching today...3 days late
I have one of my black sex link jersey giants that hatched yesterday with the other 20 I hope just being late ...they were due yesterday. But mine is not due to any power outages. My temperatures keep going up and down. I really don't like the still air incubator. I added a fan and it has kept great temp. It actually keeps better temp than my forced air incubator that I bought that way. LOL
 
Now I have two new babies. The ones born last week look so huge compared to the new ones. Hope the other 20 are just running late like my barred rock/ Dom mix did. I was shocked that she was three days late.
 
I have a baby that started pipping and I could see blood, it looks almost like there was a vessel where s/he pipped and hit it. It is not bleeding horribily but there was blood there. I did what I have heard about and slowly peeled back the shell with tweezers to check and make sure it wasnt bleeding to death and it looks like it has stopped. The baby is still cheeping and I have a warm wet paper towel wrapped around all of it except where the beak is sticking through. Is there anything else that I should be doing to try to help the baby?
 
I have one black sex link jersey giant that hatched 7/23 still have 16 that are late. I have one of my barred rock/dominique mix that hatched 7/24. I have 18 more that are due in the next few days. I guess they will all be late too. Glad I got a fan for my still air incubator.
 
I really hate waiting on these eggs to hatch when they are late. I did the float test and two were bad. Broke them and there was nothing in there. So hopefully that means the others will hatch soon. Like I said my Barred Rock/Dom mix hatched 3 days late due to the temp in the still air incubator. They were due on the 23rd. ??????????How long should I wait before I just take them out.
 
Hi, I was thinking of incubating some eggs in the furtue... where fo you get your incubators and for what price?
