I thought I had messed up this week. I put 5 serama eggs in my incubator and then a week later I put 5 more eggs in there. During candling the first ones I dropped one fertile egg then I suspected one to not be fertile leaving me 3 from the first batch. I had them down to hatch friday the 19th. Nothing happened nor on Sat or Sun so I assumed they had died but last night I went in and thought I heard a peep. I wore my floor out going back in every little while checking and nothing (I thought maybe all in my head). Well, this morning I had one out and one trying which made it out by lunch and now I have the third one trying. I can't wait to get home to check on them again. I think that is a very good hatch for me 3 out of 5 in a Little Giant incubator with no fan. Now I can't wait to see how the next batch works out.    Amanda in MS
