Hi! so this is the first time I’ve ever incubated chicken eggs and I’m not sure if they’re ready for lockdown. They’re not as full as my other eggs have been before lockdown. Also, one has an air sack in the middle for some reason. Also my incubator is set for duck eggs and for some reason the temperature has been flickering between 99.5 and 99.2 I’m not sure if this is bad or not. There are two eggs and I just want to know if I should put them into lockdown.

Any help would be very appreciated! Thank you!

They’re supposed to go into lockdown today.

The air cells look very small…… I would stop turning, but turn down the humidity a few degrees, to make the air cells slightly bigger.
