Im going to join your April May hatch a long if its ok
It seems i am hatching more eggs i didnt plan on a month ago....How it goes. chicken math

.

Have some lavender orps due Sat and then have some Buff Brahmas coming in the mail Friday but someone else is hatching them for me in their cabinet as there is just 8 Taking no chances! . Still due in May
Then have some Lemon Cuckoo Orp eggs I will be getting in a couple weeks as a trade
May hatchers too Neither has arrived but will hatch in May so just joining early since its an April hatch too.

Your hatch was bad ? That is so depressing... Some questions maybe some can help ?
What was your humidity?
Was your temp pretty steady the whole hatch?99.5 to 100
Did you raise the humidity at the end?
Did you eggtopsy the unhatched eggs? nasty but would tell when they died or if they were fertile at all.
Did you wait until day 25 before you got rid of them?
What kind of incubator?

A lesson on throwing them out early I always leave them unti day 25 now.
My last hatch a week ago...
Nothing day 21
Day 22 one ..i didnt expect.any as i had erratic temps for 10 days in my old hovabator....122 to lots of 94.5s.GGRRR
Then suprise suprise day 23 and 24 a few more hatched each day!
Day 25 my last one hatched! . Got 7 in all.
