Ok so hatch # 1, only one chick hatched after a long power outage during week one.
Hatch # 2 had a 105 temp spike on day 15... killed 30 eggs ( still in the bator just incase) 7 were still viable on day 18. had 4 pips early on day 19... one chick out this morning. one more hatched during the day. today after i come in from working outside, BOTH chicks are dead and the other 2 pips arent moving at all. one chick that died looks like its intestines are on the outside.. the other i have no idea what happened.
temps for the most part have been stable. MOSTLY around 101 its a still air bator. been running the humidity at 45% day 1-18 and 65% days 18 to hatch.
what in the world am i doing wrong?????
is it possible that there is some kind of bacteria killing off my eggs?? or am i just a begginer and practice makes perfect??
all the eggs i have bought are from different people and different areas. i have more eggs on the way i am gonna get this right!! HONEST!
any helpful suggestions are appreciated
