I know it's a day early but i have alot to do tomarrow and won't have time to do it.

Well out of 49 that i set theres 22 infertile that leaves me with 27. My Temp has been at a steady 99.5 Brower and 100-101 Acu the blanket has made a world of difference.
Humidty has fluctuated a good bit ranging from low 40s to 52% and i've added water a few times to try and keep it at a stable % with no luck??
All fertile eggs were in very good condition with active embryos only maybe 3 or 4 were maybes as the dark shell obscured my seeing clearly.
I exspected there would be a good many infertiles as roos are just not at their best this time of year. I had some blue millies that were fertile and some not this tells me my roo is favoring a hen.
Now none of my crelle were fertile will be looking at the show for a new roo. Also none of my Barred rocks were fertile may look at a new roo for that too.
Will give another update 7 days on Jan 22 can't do it on 23 thats my birthday i will be takeing the day off.

Jean Marie i forgot to take a pic i will next week the embryos should show up better then :-)
