I had a zero hatch today I opened one just to see almost 3 days late....I didn"t expect many but not zero but wasn't too suprised..about half way through i had my turner motor die..so the went a couple days before i realized i did eggtopsies...2 were green inside (lucky they didn't explode)..3 quit fairly early day 11 to 13, 1 late quitter, and 3 had fully formed malpostioned chicks no yolk sac at all...

We had this happen several times last summer. We just kept trying. More success this year but nothing like some on here. I just try to absorb all of the egg hatching wisdom and apply.
