I just shipped to Henderson with NO PROBLEM! 6 of 9 eggs are developing nicely

That sounds great, but hatching isn't the whole problem, I can get 100% hatch on shipped eggs if they're not completely scrambled. I could have you cold pack them for shipping and I usually incubate/hatch in the house, I just don't have the setup to keep them cool enough

to brood/grow-out. I just couldn't do that to the poor little things. Thanks for the update though, I think that your birds/eggs look great.

woo-hoo Im on day 5 with my 10--going to candle be right back!

 

[sonew123]

I can see 3 out of 5 marans developing! found a crack in one-that would be my fault! I dropped it an inch or two right on one of my other eggs! What a dope! Im going to keep incubating it though! my other 5 4 I can see developing-I think I have a blood ring though :-( in one-then I stuck one of mine to test fertility -I caught my lav silkie mating my dark brahms girl a few weeks ago and yup-he's doing his job-I cant wait to see that one!

yay! day 5? I would leave them ALL in there and candle again on day 10, then leave 'em alone. Cuz you had that other hatch in there a few days after you set them, right? So, I wouldn't toss any until day 10 to be safe. how do the sizzles look? In my case, it's been hard to NOT have a SIZZLE hatch. Wish you were closer...I'd GIVE you babies that all hatched from my fertility hatch

Go Sonew!

If you were closer I would take those sizzles! LOL.. the marans I think I have a clear one-because the rest (4) are darker much darker as if ones are developing that includes my cracked one. The sizzles look great 4 out of 5 I believe the 5th I think is a blod ring. I am horrible at tossing eggs-I just dont' I let them go beyond the 10th day just in case- our second batch my DH saw an egg and said he thought it was clear I dissagreed. Se we bet on it and let it go to the end and out popped a pretty EE chick who is a hen now woo-hoo..Ill let you know in another 5 days-the light my Dh and I made is like a fog light -as dark as those eggs are we can see right through them!!
