pink line is the day I put them in, blue line is today. This pic shows the faint veining a little bit (sorry, taking with my cell phone...not the best pics! But it's hard to hold egg, candler and camera all at the same time. LOL)

On the bottom edge you can just about see where that dark/light line is...not as clear from this angle.

So hey, finally got some fertile pea eggs! First two are due in 2 weeks.

When do most cockrels start trying to crow? Most everybody I have asked calls the white OE a cockrel except the EE sexing tips and tricks thread. They say pullet.

Mr. White Pea and Mrs. White Pea aren't producing any fertile ones yet.

-Kathy

I will just leave them and hope this hatch goes well.I hope the ff and ee and ps hatch.

Hey could somebody give me some help here, so I picked all my eggs out a few days prior. I'm hatching eggs in school and when I was putting them in today after school I noticed the one egg had a slight deformity, would it be okay to throw that egg out tommorow and put a new one in?

I do see the position is correct for that diagnosis. I'm wondering how his getting stuck, and the others stepping on him, relates?

if you get it in the early morning you should be ok, I often do a day later but MARK that egg so you know its late for a reason!

What's the deformity? I'd recommend that you not add any eggs at this point. Especially if doing a school hatch. You want to do every thing in your power to ensure a good hatch. Staggering is difficult.
