Why is this so difficult?

IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED, TRY, TRY AGAIN. Don't give up too easily; persistence pays off in the end...yada, yada, yada. (Yeah, I might be getting a little bitter)

42 eggs~21 days and 504 hours later. I still can't hatch a chick! This was unsuccessful round #2

It's a little gross. Only 1 egg out of 42 was partly developed. (the one egg had stopped growing) The the rest, pure yoke. I'm pretty sure my husband turned green when he saw this bowl. Austin and I were the ones cracking these open.

It's back to the drawing board...(sigh.)
