So, still forgot to take pics of the candling. At the 7 day I had separated out the ones I suspected being early quitters, had taken out the clears, and wound up with 12 that I felt were doing good. Candled all tonight and 2 I had on the "good" side had quit. But 2 I had on the "bad" side surprised me with development/movement! So it all evens out. So far at 30% of shipped eggs have development going into the last stretch of the incubation. We'll see where we're at in the next few days!

Wait, I was on desktop version and I do have a badge! Oh my goodness! When did that happen?

HAHAHA too funny!!! congrats congrats congrats!!!

IKR same here!

congrats to all!!!

yes deff. rolling. One is saddled and there is one that is normal... could this decrease my hatch rate?

rolling most likely wont make it dont touch it keep it upright, dont even candle it until day 12 just sniff it on occation so set close to sniff distance. or chuck it. the saddles have a good chance to hatch, follow what I set forth.

I have duck eggs that are due to hatch right around Halloween Can I join in the fun here?
