So I'm not sure what's going on but I currently have 5 pips on my bantam eggs and 4 are on the wrong end.
These were shipped eggs but they arrived in perfect shape. Temp during incubation was 99-100.5 and it was an almost entirely dry hatch. We did have a couple very rainy days where the humidity would jump a bit but never anything too drastic. They were incubated on their sides and turned 6x day. I'm using a IncuView.
Any thoughts?
 
I don't have bantams and have never used an IncuView incubator. I have hatched out some Seramas for a friend. I have had chicks pip the pointy end and they hatched out ok. Not sure what would cause that but looks like something to research.
 
My last March hatch out of the shipped eggs that hatched 4 out of 6 were in the wrong position. I had to help two or the wouldn’t have made it. One had a foot over its head.

Two that I cracked open that were DIS were positioned wrong for hatch. I really don’t know.
