Thank you!

I've successfully hatched month old eggs. Hatch rate wasn't great but some made it.

How many is some?

Okay so not too bad. Considering I only get one egg a day at most, I should be fine.

Just set 16 Mille Fleur d'Uccle eggs from my own pair.

Experimenting has shown me that my eggs over 2 weeks old will not develop.

Well I'll be setting eggs next week and I'll see what mine look like. Been collecting for three weeks.

Cool, I love a good experiment.
Are the eggs marked with dates?
