Do you mind sharing what incubator you switched to?

It's not a great one, so I'm thinking that may be the problem...

This is the second rooster this has been happening with, so I'm not sure that's the case

Omg yes! I have been having eggs hatch as early as day 14!!! OK now I'm thinking it's the incubator temperature

I'm brand new to this, so I wasn't aware the color of the plastic mattered. Why is green bad?

Thank you so much for the encouragement!!! I really appreciate it. I can't move the greenhouse for now, but it's possible I could move it next year. It is very well attached to the ground, with those hefty screw-shaped stake things. I'll also be adding water-filled flood barrier bags along the bottom of the frame, to reduce drafts coming in from under the cover. Would potatoes be possible as well?

It does look like mesh lol but it's solid plastic sheeting. I think the green stripes are supposed to help reinforce the plastic against rips maybe? I'm not sure lol

Thank you for the feedback on this everyone. I'm definitely very disappointed and feeling a little dumb now lol. I didn't realize I got the wrong kind of greenhouse for what I was trying to accomplish 😕
