Still nothing. I candled on egg and everything is developed, the air cell looks good, no movement. I'm suppressing the urge to cry.

Cool coloring on that third one! I wonder what it will feather out like....

This is what her mother looks like. She looked similar when she was a chick.

Don't throw them out yet...Lower temps slow incubation times. Was there movement after the 85 degree night? I would personally give them a couple more days just in case.

I am sorry things don't look good.

Wow~ 52 eggs ~ Holy cow. How are they developing?

LOL! I have the bator double stacked. I started with 60 eggs. Pulled 5 for not being fertile, and pulled 2 out yesterday for not developing, and one with a blood ring. I bought a real good flashlight the other day so can even see into the Marans and EE eggs pretty good. I can see movement in all the eggs. So at this point I am optimistic.

Excellent! I hope they all progress!
