I wish I could be more helpful than what I already suggested. I'm much better at sharing my first hand experience and guineas just happen to be one of the few that I haven't hatched.
If there aren't any odors, then I would a few days before discarding. It can be difficult to see movement sometimes.
Guineas can take 26-28 days to hatch according to google, though I've never hatched them myself. So I would at least wait a little while longer.
That's because your water is cold. The humidity will normalize once the incubator warms up the water. Keeping room temp water is helpful so the incubator doesn't need to work so hard or if you warm the water to body temp and test it on your wrist like you would with a baby bottle it will pop up...
Porous eggs aren't necessarily rough and you may actually be noticing calcium deposits rather than the shell being porous but when you candle a porous egg you will see lots of specks where the light penetrates more. You don't need to toss these eggs (they usually hatch just fine in my...
Side note, we try not to jump on people in this thread! We all had to learn at some point!! ;) lol
Nurture Right has been a very reliable brand for me BUT that's not to say that we haven't had a number of people that needed to recalibrate their incubators and sometimes things just go bad...
I second what @Iluveggers is suggesting. I have always monitored air cell growth because it was easiest for me unless I was doing an exact experiment to share specifics with others but weighing is a fool proof method of knowing when to increase or decrease humidity, especially when you aren't...
There are sooo many things that could be causing your issues so it's hard to say without more details.
Do you have a secondary calibrated thermometer and hygrometer?
Are you monitoring weight loss or air cell growth?
Some people like dry hatching, I personally found it worked better in...
It's really tough to sell anything without social media anymore. I used to be extremely private, I was one of the last of my friends to get a smart phone or a Facebook account because I just didn't see the need for it.
...fast forward to today and I even have a YouTube channel. 😅
I'm still an...
