Candled eggs- opinions please.

[Noellereagan]

Pictured is another egg I’d like opinions on please as to viability. It’s at day 19. It’s a chick. Still air bator at 101. Had been at 99.5 the first 14 days. Humidity from 30-40% pretty consistently. Should I be going in lockdown and revived the egg turner since they’re due on the 22nd (sat)? I was thinking if it’s viable it’s delayed a day or two with the lower temp the first fourteen days.

Any help and input much appreciated!

It’s at day 19.

All those pics are the same egg ....at day 19?
It's a dud, no development at all from what I can see.
Do all your eggs look like that?
(I'm assuming your are incubating more than one egg.)

I don't see anything at all, looks like they aren't even fertile..... could be your lighting. Anyway, you could try candling them on their sides, that's what I do, you can see more of the developing chick.

I'm very sorry, but the first Cemani egg does not look like it's developing I incubated one dozen Cemani eggs last year, and some of them didn't make it. It's hard to toss eggs with baby chicks in them, but you don't want to risk losing the other chicks that are growing

Thanks everyone. I only bought three. The third one definitely isn’t fertile. I’ll try candling on the side too.

Yes. All the same egg. And they all look like that. All three. Except the one black spot in the original post.

So what I thought was veins visible in the first few photos is something else? This is the egg I thought was for sure fertile. When it was 7 days in it was full of visible veins.

I don't know...sometimes veins don't show up so well in pics.

I see no active veins.
At that far in, the egg should not look like that. The chicken should be taking up more room with active veining.

Agreed, I dont see an air cell either? At day 17 I would think the entire egg minus air cell would be taken up by chick
