:frow I'm going to start incubating eggs soon, and I need advice on what to do, such as the main things. An one more question :p How long can I leave fertilized eggs before incubating?

So this is my first time ever incubating eggs or even seeing fertile eggs. I have 9 Cayuga duck eggs and one of them looks different from the rest. None have any veins yet, that I could see when candling today, we’re on day 5 of incubation. Is this egg okay? I think there is a vague smell. No...
