That stuff at the bottom of the egg that closes up towards the end.

Chorio-allantoic membrane?

Chorio-allantoic membrane?

Yes! That!

Oh, thank goodness! So that's normal, and it looks like I have a healthy batch of eggs.

Yes I am sure you do.

Look here...see the right side..we will call it the fake air cell side.
See the real air cell on the left?

 

[Kiki]

Here is a day 5 egg.
Notice you don't really see an air cell yet...left side.

That's what most of mine look like. There are several that are darker but still have the light end.

What am I going to do if they *all* hatch?

Hi! Just had my first hatch- I got lucky and have 31 chicks out of 36 fertile eggs. However, one seemed weaker than the rest and passed away on day 2 in the brooder. Is this normal? Should I be concerned about the other guys? All the others seem bright and happy and are eating and drinking as far as I can tell.

Congrats and totally normal.
