only 1 egg had a real nice,clear air cell the others weren't really clear , not really sure about the others. i got them off a kid that mentioned that he cleaned them because he was gonna sell them as eating eggs.i already had the eggs in my hand.
no , i was meaning 65 to 70 maybe 73 for humidity during lock down. i just candled the 9 i have, one had real clear air pocket .looks like the right size..id say that one looked great.On the others the edges weren't as defined , little fuzzy around the edges of the air cell or the air cell...
I'd go ahead and candle the remaining eggs and see if they are just delayed, or if they've quit. not sure what to look for to know if dead or live.its now on day 23, two hatched on day 22 <yesterday but no pips yet
