  1. do they move when you candle them?


  2. um did u buy the eggs at a store?

  3. hang in there.  I have had them hatch them hatch as late as 24 days.  How long have they been incubating?  Sounds like it just hasn't been long enough yet.

  4. When mine were late hatching I heard chirping and knew they were just taking their time. Two ended up hatching and three didn't. Give it a few more days. Good luck from one chicken lover to another---LOVE THOSE CHICKENS!!!!

  5. this  is why:Obtain the best hatch by keeping the temperature at 100 degrees F. throughout the entire incubation period when using a forced-air incubator. Minor fluctuations (less than ½ degree) above or below 100 degrees are tolerated, but do not let the temperatures vary more than a total of 1 degree. Prolonged periods of high or low temperatures will alter hatching success. High temperatures are especially serious. A forced-air incubator that is too warm tends to produce early hatches. One that runs consistently cooler tends to produce late hatches. In both cases the total chicks hatched will be reduced.
