*update*Is this a good hatching percentage

[hollyk]

I set 36 eggs in the bator, now on day 22, 29 have hatched:yiipchick. Is this a good result? I am not going to give up the rest until day 25. These were Barred Rock and RIR's I bought from a local guy. Since this is my first trip around the incubating block, I was not sure what were good numbers. Thanks for the input.

One more just started zipping!

That is better than good! Congrats. Now if you can repeat that performance, you are officially a "pro hatcher".

Wow, how nice!
I guess we will find out in April. I plan to set 4 dozen to hatch for Easter. I will be getting buff oprpingtons this time from the same fellow. Thank you.

I forgot to give credit where it is due.
THANKS to BYCers! I could not have done it without all the great info I got from the posts.

One more just started zipping! This means 30 of 36!

Thanks to those who told me to wait until day 25 before giving up on an egg!
