temperature fertile eggs can survive

[leg horn paul]

hi there

i have put 40 eggs in my incubator brinsea polyhatch and i candled them last week at 7 days half of the eggs were clear the other half had taken and i have candled them again tonight at 12 days and found they have not progressed, all cockrels are very active but it has been very cold and i was just wondering if the cold weather could make the eggs infertile/not progress??

thanks in advance
Paul

under 40 degress is bad. try again when your weather warms up.
