I have the Hovabator 1602N I think it is, with auto turner. I started with 12 FCBM eggs and 8 heritage turkeys. All local. I had 6 FCBM make it to lockdown and 3 turkeys. I had a few late quitters and some clears with both.
My temp ran a steady 100F and humidity 25-35%. At lockdown humidity was 65-70%, same temp.
I had two FCBM hatch. That was it. The rest of them died. Most of them looked to have pipped on the side of the egg, below the air cells, which were large like they were supposed to be. Fully formed chicks and poults.
Any ideas why they malpositioned?
