I never have weighed my eggs... I just put them in and keep an eye on the humidity and temp.

Me neither. I normally candle maybe once or twice, just to check development.

Just set 24 eggs. Not 100% sure what breeds they are. My hubby brought them home yesterday and there was a large mixture of chickens at the property so chances are they are mixed anyway. We lost our only rooster last summer so our personal hens' eggs are not fertilized. Now we have to outsource lol. I've never gotten eggs from this place before so I'm hoping the fertility is decent. Oh I just can't wait! So excited to see and hear about everyones progress!

Glad I'm not the only one.

Open it and see if any made it through... Then call where you ordered the eggs.

Well I set 78 eggs today. I will get a "verification pic" of the eggs set this evening or in the morning. I have to run out of town for the day and do not have time to get it and upload it here. Wishing all awesome hatches!
