Bet you got a mess of them by now.
What kind of incubator are you using?

we have an rcom pro20. we hatched 10 chicks out of 18 eggs set. 3 were infertile and we lost one chick while it was hatching. it gave me a 66% hatch rate. the last time i hatched some chicks i used a styrofoam incubator and only got 4 out of 40. so i am very happy with the results
