Hello y’all, my mama Muscovy has her very first clutch, she has never laid before. She was sitting on 4 eggs. We are past the 35 day mark, we’re actually at day 39. We have candled the entire process and we saw good air sacs, we got good development, heartbeats. For the last week or two we stopped candling and tried not to touch them. On Monday (day 35) we had found that an egg went rotten. It turned black and smelled foul. None of the other eggs changed colors or had a smell. I am so worried because there is no movement, pipping, sounds. Nothing. I feel so bad for her and I’m not sure what to do
Are my babies dead? She’s been such a good momma with sitting and keeping them safe. it’s been hot here in central CA, in the high 80-90s, I don’t know if that plays a factor or not. Just trying to give information to get help. Thank you all so much!
