Heart broken I used a pro series incubator that has the fan and egg turner in it and before lock down and taking them out of the turner to lie flat I decided to candle them real quick only to find a bunch of half developed chicks some look farther than others some were to full to tell so I left them all in the incubator but does anyone knw what may have caused this

Are you sure they are dead? Silly question, I know..but, if you haven't used a turner before, the eggs..and chick inside, look way different than if you have only ever ever hand turned. Put one of it's side for a while if you still have some, and see how different they look. Just a thought. Of course, if they were set on the HAL date, then you would be seeing more dark, regardless. :/
 
I HAVE A PIP!!! My first pip EVER! And she's chirping too! OMG how will I sleep?????

Horrible picture I know. My room is so dark. (Bator is on my dresser). Kids will be SO excited to wake up to this in the morning!!! Plus no school tomorrow. It pipped higher than I thought it would. Is that ok?? I know the air cell drew down lower than my last pencil mark... so the air cell looked perfect.

I just candled my HAL eggs and I will locking them down tomorrow since they aren't due till Monday and there seems to be a lot of space still in the eggs. They all are still moving but have a lot of space... Any ideas?
