So tricky. Can’t see a beak to date but could see something moving in it last night, and not now 5 hours later 😔 No progress made in that time. Don’t want to jeopardise egg 2 by opening the lid and dropping humidity.

10 hours in to external pip. Two bottom pics. Start of day 18. You mentioned possible intervention re pip at small end, but wondering if you might share what to look out for to prompt intervention being necessary? Appears to be some small cracking progress but minuscule at this stage. If I go to...

Oh boy, glad I posted. Okay so they should pip at the wide end? Learning, learning, when would be the sign to intervene?

Thanks so much! Guessing it might be too late that we’re already 24 hours into lockdown not to mention having not had a hygrometer running during incubation. Eep. 😢 I’m sure the Brinsea manual didn’t mention this, maybe I missed it! A lot to learn. On that thought, how do incubators handle...

Scuse the first timer here but a few questions on day 14 as I prepare for button lockdown. TIA Does it sounds right that temp was at 37.7c and now dropped it to 37.5c for lockdown & increased humidity? How do I know if simply keeping the two chambers of the Brinsea Mini 2 Advance full is going...
