I tried candling them yesterday, a lot have veins in the lavs eggs. My BY mix, not so much. I couldn't even see into the EE or the OE eggs at all, and a lot of the rest were iffy. I did have a couple with veins there, too, though.
My weights on both groups were real low. Lost about 3.5 grams in days 0-6. Anyone here weigh for humidity? I upped mine to 51%. It was at 45% for the first week. The humidity outside the incubator is around 30% most of the time, never more than 35%, so I think the bator is losing a lot of moisture due to the difference between the room and the bator RH.
Will try candling again maybe Sunday to see if I get better results at night. I wanted to weigh at the same time of day as they were set, so I was candling in the middle of the day last time. In a room with the blinds shut, with a blanket over my head, but still wasn't dark dark. So I need to do a repeat at night.
Looks like a lot of you are getting fertile eggs! I hear that is good this time of year to get any at all.
@misfitmorgan Sorry about the eggs! Its a cool idea, though. Have you done store eggs before?
@ChickyChickens Go Chicky go! Lol.
