Hi everyone! My broody is determined to be a mom. After her 3rd attempt of hatching unfertilized eggs, I finally broke down and got her some hatching eggs. She's a determined mom and only leaves the nest for a few minutes a day. I've tried to candle the eggs with my trusty mag lite and some dark towels but no real luck on most.
So does anyone know how to tell if your getting growth without candling? We're almost to (hopefully) hatch late this week and yesterday when i made my final attempt, they felt heavier/ more solid and seemed weight was distributed unevenly. Am I losing my mind?
The bad eggs I've pulled over the years generally feel more "fragile" like porcelain but these are hefty.
Thoughts?
