@RubyNala97 I am sorry to hear that I would be really upset. Hopefully they will come to light. I would be camping down the post office until they found them. You just can't get the service these days. Hoping for the best for you.
 
Living incubators. They will hatch anything. Other than that, just their good looks

How many incubators do you need???
 
The babies are here! 6 little fuzzys so far and 5 still trying to hatch. I'm supposed to leave in incubator for a day? When do we I start giving food and water?
 
I went with the Farm Innovations. Also said the humidity was 85%. I need to find my household humidity gauge to stick in there. Its only 35% room air (according to the weather channel) I did wash but not dry. I was shooting to put the eggs in tonight but might wait till the morning. Also the book I got with it said to sanitize the eggs before placement, is this necessary? They are not dirty or poopy. Thanks for the advice

If they aren't extremely soiled I wouldn't. A good share of people advise against washing because it removes the egg's "bloom".

Did you say you washed your eggs? Or the incubator? The general recommendation is to NOT wash eggs that will be incubated. They do better if you leave them au naturel (with the bloom on them). I like to have my bator up and running with sealed bottles of water for 24 hours to allow it to stabalize before committing eggs to it. Even then, when you put the eggs in, you'll see the temp drop. It's important to just wait out that drop, and it will eventually come back up again. A lot of people jump on that temp drop and start tweaking, then they end up with a lethal spike.
