Just looking at that pic, they look to have caved a little in places.

Have they since perked up and are now a full shaped egg with no signs of collasping?

If they haven't i would add just a little more water.

Good luck.

Hey Twiggz,

Yes the do have little dimpled spots, they were that way when I found them.
I have added a little more water,. but dont want to go the other way and have it too damp.

How does everyone else do it?,. what mix?, does everyone keep theirs in airtight containers? and just air out once a weeks?
Any help/comments would be appreciated.

Thanks Kelly

 

[Twiggz]

I tend to do it every two weeks. Just take the lid of the containers for just a few minutes at a time and back in the incubator. As the get closer to hatching i do it bout once a week.

As far as adding water- only do it if its necessary. Usually when adding water you should notice within 24hrs that the eggs have corrected themselves or not. If they have then leave them, if not then you will probably find that the air in the container is not humid enough and is in fact drawing the moisture from the eggs (collasping the eggs)- and so you would need to add a little more water.
