because the button quail eggs are very tiny and fragile I have avoided candling but I’m curious to know can I candle on day 14 which I’m on now or should I just leave them and wait to see
This is not related to quail but I have six sebright eggs due to hatch today and I candled them it looks like only 2 have anything should I crack the four that don’t look like they have anything in ?
Today is hatch day so far nothing I candled and only 2 look like they have anything in should I crack open the ones that look empty cause nothing looks like it’s even growning
In the eggs when I last candled I saw 1 egg had movement one egg looked like it had a heart beat but the rest were empty looking or had small bits shadowed but the rest clear what does this mean?
There due tomorrow should I candle again or is it just best to wait till tomorrow?
