Hi this is my first time ever doing eggs. All 8 of my eggs came looking good. No cracks and air sack is pretty much on top like you was saying they should be, but there is 2 eggs I can't see the air sack at all. I really tried to see it, but can't find it. I did put them 2 up on end with blunt end up. I have the other eggs just resting. In about 2 more hours I'm going to put them all in my bator like you said and do what you said to be best way to do them. Thank you i love reading your stuff it very helpful and comforting to me. I think this is going to be something i really like doing.For the sake of future readers I will tell my aircell/shipped eggs woes before update.
I received 4 utility toulouse eggs in the mail, box looked great, eggs looked great. I weighed and marked them, but forgot to candle for loose aircells. SO put them in the bator for 24 with no turning. After 24 began to rock them, then after another 24 hours remembered I had not candled them. This revealed the loose air cells. I followed advice of those on these threads and put them in bator upright with no turning. Original advice was until day 5-6. Yesterday evening was day 6, so I candled again and aircells seemed much more stable, still a little "wiggly" but not "floppy" or "sloppy". I was also able to see veining in the second egg. SO now 2 with for sure development, Other two I still cant see veining, but eggs are darker and in all appearances look the same as the other two, ie the shadow of the yolk, etc. They were just a bit dirty so not as translucent as the other 2.
