I candled last night and early this morning, and as I moved one egg against our little homemade candler, I noticed the veins stayed in place. In another egg the veins moved with the motion. Does that mean one of them has a defect or something? Our humidity has been rather high, around 60-70% because all of the eggs are extremely porous, so I wouldn't think that the chick is stuck to the shell or anything...or is it?
the veins should stay in place. you might notice the emybro swimming/moving when you hold the egg still, this is normal. Usually when the contents of the eggs swirl when you move the egg, it's a bad thing. Keep both eggs for now, and candle again before hatching time.
