Please see our eggs, we’ve candles them tonight on day 6. We think we’ve got 3 possible fertile eggs. Funnily enough the 3 that look fertile are the green eggs where as the white/cream ones we arn’t sure about!
Please feel free to let us know what you think, thank you

1 & 5 look good to me and agreed 4 looks like it is a quitter. 2 possibly an unfertile egg. I've only hatched once, so no expert but that's my best guess.
Best of luck with your hatch :)
 
Thank you, I know we’ve a long way to go and things could change daily, I’ll leave them be for a few days and then check for changes 🤞🏼
 
I can barely see anything inside my eggs so my philosophy is to keep them in if they don't leak or stink till 2 days after they are due. If not stinkers or leakers, there really is no reason to remove them in my way of thinking. A hen doesn't candle and remove eggs.
