hello, I set 16 eggs on the 9th. I have slowly been losing them at various stages of development. I candled at 7 days and pitched only the eggs that did nothing. I candled today and had all but three die. Is there something that I am doing or is this par for the course with shipped eggs. I will say they were in transit through a snow storm, but my temps have been stable at 101 (still air) with humidity at around 20%.
 
I'm guessing it's because they are shipped.

I just tossed 12 of 36 from my bator on day 10. 8 of 19 didn't develop from shipped eggs from WMR.
