How many did you end up with? I have a hen with two chicks and one pipping. I have not had the best luck this year.I think it's been too hot and too humid.

rotten. Either they did not develop or died soon in incubation. I had two hens that did not hatch anything. I think it was too hot. Fertility suffers in hot weather and it may effect incubation. If you have another one to set, let me know and I'll give you a few eggs.
