Today is day 18.
I candled again last night, didnt take pictures this time. Everything looks to be going good. 32 eggs have made it to lock down! I filled all the water trays my instruction book said to fill, took the eggs out of the egg turner and laid them down and now its time to wait and see what happens. I couldnt see good in the 6 dark eggs on the far side, but there is no weeping and no yucky smell coming from them so I left them in. I just think the shells to dark for me to get a good look. They do have air pockets, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for good results. The next 3 days are going to be hard, I'm really excited... I'm so excited I've dreamed about hatching eggs for the past 2 nights, how crazy is that, lol! My family thinks I'm weird... but just wait til they see those cute lil fuzzy butts hatching!
Good luck! It is exciting :)

ReplyDeleteI would replace the thermometer. The ones that come with the bator have a tendency to be off by a couple degrees. I use accurite digitals from Walmart.

I'm excited too! I sure hope they all hatch!
