incubator and eggs ... daily update

[MaureenHall]

They must've heard the weather forecast and thought sod this for a lark, I'm staying put!!!

[chicken slave]

Is there any movement in them at all Lynda???????????

[lynda66]

nope not moved even slightly .... nothing.

[Bephlam]

Ok, what does that mean then??

You definitely could see signs of life prior to now, right?

[lynda66]

yeah last life i saw was 3-4 days ago when one wriggled it's toes, other than that they have just grown, and not much movement at all, and my bulb has gone on the torch so i cant even candle them, tried with a lamp but didn't work well enough to see anything

[Seahorse]

Still got everything crossed for you Lynda. Please go get a new torch asap!

[chicken slave]

If you only have a lamp, cut a hole in a piece of dark or very thick card place it over the end of the lamp and then pop the egg on. I have never used a torch just a spot light in the office with a piece of card.
You could try a flannel warmed with water, wrap it aroud the egg in your hand for a couple of minutes. This will help the humidity and you will be able to feel movement.
