Okay.

That coming from a person who got a 100% hatch on a couple of emu eggs.

(It was 100%, right? Now I doubt myself/memory.) I know Brinsea incubators aren't everyone's cup of tea, but I usually have really good luck with my Brinsea Octagon ECO 20. And eggs from the backyard, which those were, are usually going to do better than shipped eggs ... or at least they do for me.

So true, I set 30 of my own eggs and 27 hatched, for a rate of 90% I set 19 shipped eggs and 5 hatched for a rate of 26%, overall I ended up with a hatch rate of 65%. I was pretty happy with that since 39% of my eggs set were shipped.

Congratulations on your hatch, you did a great job!
