I hope it wasn't that, that caused the death😬 Speaking of attempting to hatch again, though, I was wondering if there were any good incubators you guys recommend? As well as possible places that would sell silkie eggs around North Carolina so I can feel better about the first egg?

Yes, I will definitely try again sometime in the future! Definitely with a real incubator and better eggs :))

And uh, I don't now if this is appropriate, but my friend, she made an edit of the chick(I was gonna name it Brick)

The temp was usually 99-101. It dropped to 97 one time as well as going up to 103 for like a minute, but I fixed it pretty quickly.

Welp, here it is :0 It seems to be abt 19-20 days? Just before the due date😔

I will be wearing goggles and a hazmat suit👍 It will be cracked far away in a desert where no one will ever find it.

Yes, ofc! And yea, it was an egg meant for eating. There was one other egg that was also in a similar situation, but it's with a friend and unfortunately, also did not make it.

Here's a pic of how the egg looks as of now. There's a line running across the air bag in the second pic, I'm assuming might be a blood ring? I don't think there's been much development either.

Ok I just talked to a parent, and he said that the crack might have gotten bigger because of the chick getting into position? I hope that's the case for this one, but it doesn't explain the little bit of clear liquid escaping the crack (crack happened to be right where the air cell is since the...

I believe that's what I will do, ty for the help! I think I'll candle it in the morning tomorrow, and if by the evening, nothing else happens, I will crack it open. Should I post pictures if there was something in there? I might end up posting pics throughout the process to feel more at ease...

Although i'm a little scared to, I think I will try tomorrow, if nothing else happens(probably will get a parent to do it bc I'm a little queesy with these things) Hopefully it doesn't explode on on us!

No, this is the only egg. It came from a market so I guess it's chances were low in the first place :( The incubator is currently/has been in my room, but I don't want it to cause my room to stink if it explodes. Would it be a good idea to wait until tomorrow just to see if there are any changes?

Today should be day 20/21, I was looking at it, and think it might be oozing something. There was originally a very small crack in the egg, but today, the crack suddenly became much larger and a clear liquid was leaking from the crack, and it seems to dry slightly yellowish. There isn't any...

Uhhh so I might be candeling a bit too much so this is the last time, but I was checking the egg and it had this weird blob thing on one side of the airbag? I included both sides in the pictures Blob: Blob side view:

Thanks! I'll update if anything else happens :)

I've been having a hard time seeing movement, but when candling the egg on the pics in the first page, there was definitely no feet. The egg has been with me for about a week, and there looks to be some development. Today was the first time I saw feet, and the round part of the egg has been up...

I just candled them again, and I think I see something? I'm not quite sure what it is, but the air cell seems a bit more slanted than before

Oh my goodness, that's so close! I hope this doesn't get confusing, but for a few of the pictures with the slants and a larger gap, I just realized I put the light on the pointer end :| would that be a part of the air sac? The second and third pics should be the round end. I've been having a bit...

Thanks! Would day 14-16 be a good estimate?

Unfortunately, I had to make my own incubator, but I am regulating/checking the temp and humidity often and turning 5 times a day. The partial incubator is by my side 24/7. Thanks for your advice though! Anything counts :)
