WK #3

[Sydney65]

Should I pitch #7 now or give it time? I wld think if bad, temp will cont to drop. I like turner for holding eggs stable and blocking that hole, but seems to only rotate around, not actually turn eggs. So I've cint doing it manually.

I would give it at least 10 more days to be sure.

I commented and bookmarked,is there something else to do to join?

I saw your post and responded. That’s all you need to do - you’ve officially joined! You’ll either get a million alerts about posts and comments, because hatch a longs are ridiculously busy threads, or BYCs will decide to drop your alerts from the hatch a long and you’ll have to more directly check in to see what’s going on.

Some or all of these may be the same as above. The storm last night was interfering w/downloading and attaching and I think some just went missing. 2 look alike except one has an eye one doesn't. Not sure abt the glowing one, but of the 7, that's still the only one. All staying 100° shell temp. I was surprised, wasn't expecting to see that little eye all just yet.

Day #9 - cont to hold temp steady. 6 remind me of Mexican Jumping Beans my gpa used to bring home every yr. The 7th remains clear and still.

Have you marked the air cell on the eggs to see how they are growing, I just use a few dots with a sharpie and did you weigh the eggs when you first put them?

 

[Sydney65]

I did not weigh them, bc they were shipped eggs already 4 days old on arrival. I read about a formula to use when wt isn't ideal option, but general concensus was to just candle them. I did mark the air cell on arrival but have not continued doing so. Are you seeing a concern?
