Mrs. AK-Bird-Brain :

Adding a picture of an egg where the embryo died about day 7...

You don't want to see dark/black lumps in there... and there would be movement at this stage.

Uh oh.. well I'm glad to see this image. Not so glad to know what it means... I really like this post Mrs. AK thanks loads. Though I have looked at the Minkhollow site they kind of fluffed on posting what the bad candles mean... sometimes that's the most important information...​
 
Thanks for the info I have only one question.

I do not know the exact age of my eggs and the last time I candled

them I noticed that the whole egg was dark but the air sack

now 2 days later I can't even see the air sack does that mean the

chick in dead or is this normal? From JJ

I would stop turning it or put it in the hatcher!

If it's NOT dead, it's almost ready to hatch!

My wonderful little Minny is setting on her second hatching.. we only have 2 eggs this time... I think the should start to pip this Tuesday- Day 21...I Candled tonight and they both have air sacks...keep your fingers crossed...my question is should I move her out of the coop or just let her raise them there...????
