    I never had to add any water, there was no place for it to go.
    The sides (and glass front were constantly covered in humidity.

    OMG I think its a miracle! I dropped a couple drops of water in each egg and im vertain there was movement in at least 4 of them! INCLUDING that little PREMIE CINNY that I presumed had passed!!!
    OHH. I am praying that little guy is tough, and can make it!.

    I am on an hourly watch since today is day 65! AND i DID SEE MOVEMENT!

    camera is ready just in case a miracle happens.

    If you have been opening the bator alot could be drying them out. also the temp would be lower for awhile. I bet they come out fine for you.

    Oh, that would be so AWESOME if they made it, crossing fingers and toes here

    I would keep adding water, the eggs on top and that open one look very very dry. Also, I would cut each egg a bit, they might be to tough for the hatchlings to cut through themselves...

    Good luck

    That's great! Just don't let the insides of the eggs dry out and your babies should be okay. It may take them a little longer to absorb their yolk and leave their eggs but patience pays off.

    Mine took a long time too. We cut at day 60 and they didn't come out until a week later. And, we didn't see much movement either. Just keep adding lukewarm water. I put a bottle of saline solution I had inside the bator and used that to add water into the eggs everyday. You can just put a small bottle of water in your bator if you can fit it and use that water to put a little bit in each egg daily.

    Good luck! We're pulling for ya!
