It's day 7 today, so I started candling my eggs in the incubator and made the shocking discovery that one of my eggs is cracked! It was almost impossible to see on the shell until I candled it. (I do inspect all of my eggs thoroughly before placing in the incubator. I think the crack may have occurred during placement, or some accidental movement since) Imagine my surprise to see the embryo developing and moving!
(Candle shot isn't very good due to poor light. I usually use my phone for candling(Has a much stronger light), but went with what I had in order to get a pic of the crack)
Now, I know I've seen other people have been able to still hatch cracked eggs. Is there any advice on what I can do to give this egg the best possibility of survival? How likely is it that it will survive in an egg that's been cracked very early on?
Open to any constructive advice!
