Accidental first time

[chick mama2o18]

This is my first time hatching anything and not only do I not know what they are I also do not know if they are OK I got them from a grocery store not a grocery store but a market with my mother earlier yesterday technically around six I had a feeling in the car that I should candle them and they had veins they were fertilized pretty much am yeah so I just need help figuring out if they’re OK and that it’s even worth trying to hatch them

I think they’re more around 10-12 days old. The first two it’s hard to tell but I don’t see very much veining. The other three I can see veining. Can you try and candle them where the air sac is? It should be at the larger end of the egg. Do you have a way to incubate them?

Not for a couple days now unless I get one online but that would take longer and so probably Sunday I will

I'm confused? Well, i guess i just have alot of questions rather than being confused.. People stop mid incubation to take them to a farmers market and sell them? For people to finish incubating them? Were they still in an incubator, or displayed out in the open on the carton?.. Regardless, you cant stop mid incubation and wait days to start incubating them again. It don't work like that. If they have been out of an incubator since yesterday, consider them dead.

I won’t until Sunday maybe but I have them under a heat lamp on a moist towel because a friend who hatches eggs said to but I like this site because it’s a bunch of people not just one

Well, that may work, and thats a big maybe, if the temperature is right. It's alot more complicated than just having heat on them. It has to be a specific temperature, and the eggs must be in a container of some sort to insulate and regulate the temperature. They cant just be in a room with a heat lamp on them. If they are in a container, have you been monitoring the temperature?

Do you have the stuff around for a diy incubator? Like a styrofoam cooler or something like that? These are the instructions I followed for mine https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.instructables.com/The-3-30-Minute-Egg-Incubator/?amp_page=true
