I decided to set 30 eggs today Due April 8th

These are the eggs we are setting for the hatch April 8, 2010. I will be tracking weights in addition to candling and tracking the air cell and development. I have made a new chart for this and need to see if by adjusting the humidity according the the growth of the air cell and weight if I can improve my hatch rates. If this hatch works out; I will have almost tripled our flock. in just a few months.

I forgot to post here!

last hatch on March 6th, 2010
19/23 hatched
so fertility was 92.59%
Hatchability is 82.67

March Hatching

We set 27 eggs on Valentine's Day in the incubator, due to hatch March 7th if the temperatures hold steady.
This is a mixed batch of eggs, collected for 24 hours from our hens. The resulting chicks will be added to the Laying Flock at our little farm.
