I don't know how to act. I came home to a stable incubator, holding perfect temperature, 34% humidity (no water added). What am I supposed to do for 3 weeks??

Sleep. And smile.

Duck or chicken? Sorry, I forget.

That egg is nowhere near hatching if it's even alive. It looks like a dead 14 day chicken embryo.

I'm down to 7 eggs!!! This is just heartbreaking. I'm done candling until lockdown. (Unless something smells funky). 1/2 the eggs...gone. And they were doing ok until 2 days ago!! Why'd they quit on me?? Fingers crossed for a pair!! Ok, I'm done whining.

so sorry If it's ok we'll feel bad with you hope the rest make it to hatch

10 min later she was out foraging with the others. Cant say I blame her lol

Run, run like the wind!!! lol...

I gave eggs that had internally/externally pipped to a broody. She sat on them all night, but when they started hatching, she ran away from them, and never looked back. She was in love with the idea of brooding nice quiet little golf balls, but when faced with a squawking chick, she wanted nothing to do with it!!!

I give mine a few days of sitting first... but mine are quite unique broody's... great for adopting random chicks from the bator too...

My notes only go the the person I love, not posted on the Internet.

Hear, hear!!!!

You're going to hate my Farm Master story... I paid $25 and drove 40 miles to get it. I turned it over to another BYCer when I didn't think that I had any use for a 320 egg incubator.

No... you did not...
