DAY 18 SMALL AIR CELLS PLEASE HELP

[WVduckchick]

Oh wow, so sorry you lost her!! She was a beauty!! Just gorgeous. I don’t know what breed though. Maybe campine? Seems like those stupid predators always target our favorites.

I hope you get some babies to hatch

Also, this was just candled today and doesn't look right to me, what does everyone else think? If this is a goner, that makes only 3 out of 6 left so far View attachment 1590364

Doesn’t look great, but might as well leave it in now. Could be it broke the membrane and some extra fluid is floating around, since they didn’t dry out quite enough.
I’d leave it in, but prop it up with the air cell end elevated and hope for the best.

Thank you so much for your help, fingers crossed! I hope this is possible. This is so heart breaking

When they start internally pipping, you could try to make a safety hole to compensate for the air cell being so small.

How is that done?

Thank you very much, I will be keeping everyone updated within the next couple days. Please pray for my babies! I am a nervous wreck!

Your babies will be in my prayers. Don't worry too much. If it happens it was meant to happen, if it doesn't happen, it wasn't meant to happen. Good luck!
