Discolored Egg in Incubator Good or Bad ?

[karanleaf]

Hello I'm new I live in NE Missouri I have 8 Rouen Duck eggs in incubator they are on day 20 1 is dicolored as in darker in a large area the others are not. Does this mean it has stopped and gone bad? I had 1 exploded in the incubator last year

what a mess. Any suggestions? I will check in later on the way to pickup 8 Rouen ducklings and then go to Grandson's ball game

. thanks

I'd be afraid that it's bad and discolored from bacteria growing it in. Does it smell? Have you candled it?

Just got home from ball game little over an hour ago. We had candled all the eggs 2xs 1st on day 7 then on day 15 both times egg F had a dark cloudy look to it. 3 or 4 of them on day 15 you could even see movement it was really

. We got egg F out and disposed of it. Didn't want to chance risking others to a mess

. Thanks for the reply we error on the side of caution.

Thanks ezbird & Katy Sure looks like a great group to flock around.

I believe this may become a habit. DH was surprised when I brought home 11 ducklings instead of 8.

Just love my ducks I guess. Peanut our Drake has taken to watching over his new charges well.

be going off to the office now will check in on my break.
