CG's adopt an egg Hatch-Along!

[Tookie]

I may have accidentally fried the eggs the temp spiked after it had been running evenly for 24 hours and it was up to 105 for 1-3 hours.

Oh no! You think you did fry them??

I don't know yet, they're 6 days a long and I don't know what I'm looking for when candling to see if they're dead. I feel so horrible, nothing is going right with this hatch.

Well, things happen, and there's not much you can do. Don't feel too bad about yourself.

Thanks Tookie, I just brought them in and candles them and I couldn't tell much but I think at least TB might be alive.

This is a video of what I could see in TB. Is there hope or is it dead? Sorry for the shaking video

It's hard to tell but you can kinda see something

Is the embryo just floating around in the egg, or is it pretty fixed in place?
Do you see any active movement?

If I joggled the egg it moved with in a half inch circle but it's not just going everywhere. I couldn't tell, I thought maybe I could but it might have been my hands shaking.

I candles again with a brighter light and at least two aren't dead! TB and N2 I could see the embryo moving! The rest either I couldn't find the embryo or the shell was too dark.

N4 was not fertile, and I don't think N5 is either. Nebbie must just have not been getting bred. I took N4 out but giving N5 a few more days
