Okay thank you, for all your help. Can you tell me how you tell specifically? Like no veins?

How many days have you been incubating ?

Close to 10 days, it’s a goose

The colouring is right
Is the egg dirty those can be harder to see through
You don’t see any veins ? If you hold the egg still do you see any movement ?
If no veins and no movement it’s probably gone

The egg shell is like a darker cream color and does have some dirt still on it from the nest. It’s too dark for me to really tell if I can see anything. What kind of movement?

If you hold the egg still that darker mass should be moving around
That would be the baby
If it’s quit it won’t move at all

How much movement like a lot / a little? I’m sorry I’m asking so many questions.. I’m just curious either way, cause I think I may see some but idk if that’s just my eyes being weird..

Yea, it looks darker, so I’m just confused. I’ve been turning it multiple times daily as instructed and the incubator hasn’t had any issues. But wow gotcha lol. I will definitely keep this In mind and give it a few more days. Thank you.
