Final candling of our hatching eggs before they hatch.  #backyardchicken #homesteading #jerseygiant

Thank you so much for this. I'm on Day 17-ish and was very nervous about how they didn't look quite so ready to hatch. I'm not sure what I was looking for - maybe a neon sign or flashing light or something? This was very helpful.

Hello chicken man 🐥🐥🐔🐓 what does it mean when you say good or bad please ?
Thanks 👏🙏 💟

Have they hatched? How many chicks did you end up with?

[Kelly_Mae]

Are you supposed to take them out of the incubator to check? I thought once in they had to stay?

"Incubate until there is no debate" I'm not sure if it applies to chicken eggs, but I recall seeing it on snake eggs.

Good luck! We have eggs going into lockdown in about a week!

Can you leave the bad ones in, to give em a chance?

[CrazyChickenBre]

We go into lock down tomorrow night here. Good luck to your eggs & 🐣
Do you leave the duds in the incubator during lockdown or do you remove the ones you think aren’t growing?
