Alive or dead?

[Gladys_3]

It is day 14 and this is how one of the eggs look, is it dead or alive, any advice or recommendations? Also, we are just using a regular flashlight. Thankyou.

Looks dead, sorry . If it were alive, you would have been able to see veining and the egg would be much darker.

You need a special flashlight to look at the chick inside, does it work with the other eggs?

Day 14 it should not look like that.
Day 14 is 2/3 of the way to hatch.
It may never have been fertile.
It may have begun growing and then for some reason stopped. But that egg won't hatch either way.
As @LikeTurkeys said it should be much darker by now.

Actually, you don't. I've always candled mine with a regular flash light (albeit somewhat brighter than most). The brighter the light, the better though.

I also use a regular flash light.
Whatever light you are using, the egg should not look that light.

All the other eggs looked good with the flashlight besides that one and one that got a blood ring during incubation that I throw out. I was only asking because on day 7 of candling that egg, It wasnt showing signs of development and now I saw that on top so thats why I thought it could’ve been a late bloomer.
