I am guessing that the clear ones were not fertilised? What day is it now? I have read candling at about ten days is best for beginners and with practice you get better at telling which ones have a growing chick and which ones don't :) I have never done it myself so I am probably not the best person to be advising you [smilie=a_chuckle.gif]

Hi Kim

It might pay to start a new thread with your question so it doesn't get lost in this one :)

40% at egg setting and 60% when hatching is good enough

Cheers I was hoping some person had looked at both before and come up with the best option. I may go for the hover as it looks like it may be cheaper in price
