Over 21 days, no pips, alot of thin red veins

[bb29292]

It’s been well over 21 days so I had to check if any of my 4 eggs were dead.

I broke the bottom of the egg to see white dry membrane and then gently wet it with coconut oil. It has clear red veins since yesterday here is an updated picture. (she moves so definitely alive) currently in incubator with 3 other unpipped eggs.

Maybe your temp was lower so they are slower to develop. Also, did you start counting from day 0 or day 1. It could only be day 22.

^^ Exactly. That and some just take longer. Keep that area moist and just wait.

I agree definitely slower to develop, the temperature is usually at 37.5. Today is day 22

Keep an eye on the membrane, you may need to reapply the coconut oil.

Im afraid of opening the lid so much as it risks the other eggs

Not unless you leave it off for awhile
