Quick question

[yelkenli]

Would this be an issue of the air space not growing enough, or even with the air space growing, there could be too much liquid?

I ask because candling is a diagnostic for the air space. If you candle and see that the air space is not growing as much for one egg, do you put that one in a dryer area (not even sure how to do that without a separate incubator).

Thanks!

Yep, that's what you'd have to do if it was a liquid issue.

Did you fully crack it open? Did you get a lot of liquid out if you did?

Another thing, I don't see the beak at all in that picture. Does it look as though it was malpositioned? Because that could be the real reason it didn't hatch. The liquid I think I'm seeing might just be shine off the membrane.

I thought I saw a beak, but it was hard to tell. I did move the membrane around and it was very wet, but I did not open the egg up anymore, so did not verify if there was liquid pouring out. Lesson learned to do that in these cases.
