Day 5 candling:
Only 2 of 18 eggs were obviously developing. The 2 with obvious development are my BYM bantam eggs. It's still early though so I'm not giving up hope. I'll candle again on day 7, and possibly 10 as well, before I decide if they're duds or not. I will set aside some eggs from my flock to add to the incubator if need be so I don't end up with too few chicks.
I also contacted the seller of the Cream Legbar eggs when they arrived chilled. They said to let them know how things go on day 10 and they'll send a new set for just the cost of shipping if need be.
