hi all new to forum im in uk london to be precise , just got 4 chukar eggs from a friend of mine . he keeps really pure birds which have been imported from afghanistan and kurdistan , his birds are nice and big there not for meat there usually used for fighting thats why the strain is so large and muscular ( although i am stricktly against fighting i do keep birds so i was happy to tek some eggs )
any way i went to get the eggs and they what kept in the car and it was realy realy hot they where in a plastick egg carton and i took four off him they shook a bit but not soo much i was just wondering could the hot day have baked the eggs to the point there embryo will not form ? the tempriture was around 20 to 29 degrees celcius ( for england that is a hot day ) ; )
also i keep them in a manual incubator which is set to chickens temp and humidity is this ok ? and what day should i start to see blood vessels etc form if they are fertile ( god willing ) ?
thanks in advance

hi habib wondering if you keep chukar hear in uk ? id love to buy some chicks or adults off you , i will be getting the red variety soon hopefully .
 
its been a bit more than 2 days since i put the eggs in the incubator , there in a manual sitting sidewards i turn them every 3 hours , i candled them today and they all seem to be clear'ish , there air sacs are at the top as should be but i see only yolk atm could they be slow or do you think they are dead or infertile at this stage ?
