Title: Looking good so far!
Post by: min200 on January 21, 2011, 13:28

Day 6 of the latest batch of hatching eggs and ive just candled them.

They are showing 19 fertile out of 21 so far!  Fingers crossed!

ALL of the six serama eggs are showing fertile which would be brilliant if they all hatch!

I'd try not to disturb them or as little as possible after 10 days.  So if you candle again just do it the once and not after day 12.  Stop the turning at the end of day 18 and raise the humidity to 60% + and you will have a very sucessful hatch I'm sure.

Best of luck
