Eggs were packed very well, ordered 50 had way more then that, about 4 were cracked, but there was like 5 screw drivers in the box with the eggs? Thought that was strange but I'm guessing they were good luck charms.  s020

Would like to say these eggs are H-U-G-E I'll tell you guys in a couple weeks just how fertile they are when God willing they hatch.

I must have had a light headed spell, like when I got married the third time.  This ole country boy apologizes for the broken eggs, I always send plenty of extras TG.....................and I have no idea how the screw drivers got in there. dh1  Let us know how the hatch comes out, I've been getting anywhere from 75  to 90% hatch rate and have had power outages for varying periods of time late in the last several hatches.

Actually I figured out that the "lucky screwdrivers" were 1 inch wood screws that were in the bottom of the box.  JUMBO BROWN COTURNIX eggs, $3.50 a dozen - 2 dozen minimum order plus shipping and handling of course.  Available most anytime. ty2
PM me for paypal info if you are interested.

Day 18 no signs of anything, no wobbling :(

They were wobbling on day 14 but not since, worst thing thats happened this whole incubation period was temp hit about 106 for 4 hours in the beginning and humidity hit 85% on day 15.   I thought I would have a really good hatch rate but right now its looking like a 0% hatch rate. I'm really bummed out about it. :(

The worst that any of my customers have reported was more than 60% hatch rate.  If they were shaking on day 14 the 85% humidity might have been a "little high?"

Opened half of them up they were fertile thats for sure, but most of them died early on like under a week old only had one fully developed chick and I think it was the egg that I saw rocking, I'm blaming it n my incubator but I ordered a new one, I'll open up the rest tomorrow.
