First timer, using a Brinsea Mini Advance, day 14. Yesterday I posted that one of my eggs was cracked and oozing and everyone advised me to toss it. Cracked it open and yes it had stopped developing ages ago. More googling today taught me that rotten eggs actually explode! Had I known I would have been a lot more careful handling it.
Anyway I suspected the rest of my eggs are kaput. I tried candling and cannot interpret what I see. I never have been able to see blood vessels. Are these eggs all rotten too? Should I toss them or wait until the 21 days is up. What if they explode in my bator? Here are just some eggs. Some eggs were too dark to see. Sniffed them and none of them smell bad.
This one looks just like the bad one I cracked yesterday. Dead?
This one has no blood vessels and a weirdly shaped air sac. All dark. No movement. Dead?
Another very dark mass.
TIA for your help!
