A big air bubble?

[Tallisdibrani]

Morning , we have a goose egg with a really big air bubble ( the other eggs air bubble is smaller) it’s our first time incubating eggs so is this normal or is there something wrong ?

I think it’s about 15 days old

can you see any movement in the egg when you candle it?

Only a little bit

that's the air cell, this egg seems to be losing more moisture than the others, if theirs are smaller.
Could we see a photo of one of the other eggs candled? Day 15 yes? Would be interesting to see how different the air cells are. What is your humidity and temp?

I don’t know the humidity as it doesn’t show up on the incubator but the temp is around 37 to 38 I’ll send a photo when I get back.

okay, do you have any other thermometers in the incubator, as they are usually inaccurate- and it is important to have a hygrometer, you can get them pretty cheap in pet store reptile sections or online

No but I’ll search for one online or the next time when I go to the feed shop we just use a small water bottle and there is a hole where the water goes

it'll definitely help to have one, I got mine on amazon and it worked brilliantly! It was only about £5.
It would definitely help to see one of the other eggs, it would give us an idea of the current humidity and whether or not it's too low
