    Looking for fertile eggs!?

    Do you have other eggs incubating? At day 19 most of the egg would be dark and a large air sac on the fat end. With clear definition of the chick pushing and moving around near the air sac line. I'm sorry. Getting hatching egg through the mail this time of year is you chance a very low hatch...

    Looking for fertile eggs!?

    Unfortunately that egg looks like nothing formed. Either wasn't fertile or if anything did form it stopped a few days into incubating.

    No eggs!?

    Are they confined to a run or let out to range? Days are also shorter and colder. Depending on age molting also stops or slows egg production. And breed makes a difference.

    No eggs!?

    If you have enough hungry rats they'll take the eggs day or night. Depending on the severity of the rat population they could be eating your eggs.
