In my personal opinion, I'm not an expert but these are my thoughts from what I can tell Egg 1 looks to have a blood ring- dead embryo Egg 5 blood ring Egg 7 I think blood ring Egg 12 no development or blood ring Egg 15 no development or blood ring I THINK. Definitely try to get better pictures these are hard to tell. Can you see movement????
When candling try holding the pointy side down/against the light, shine up to the air pocket/wide end. Need better pictures please. I see veining in all except 5 - 10, 12 - 18 but can't say for sure cause pictures aren't clear. You can leave the ? eggs in for couple more days, then try candling again.
Yea getting a good pic was hard to do lol didn't want to keep them out too long messing with it. Some are def duds, but I saw movement in a few I think. Was hoping for at least a 50% hatch rate but I don't know noe
I will try that way next time I candle, im thinking day 14. Things should hopefully be a little easier to tell by then
I definitely agree to try candling them in about 5 to 7 more days. You will know for sure!! Day 7 I took some awesome videos of my babies moving. We are currently on lockdown and I'm BEYOND TICKLED. From what I can tell atleast 10 so far are fertile & growing. But the pictures are great enough to tell a ton. But me and a few others did agree on a few. Look up blood rings and do lots of research. I was a total novice amateur Candler up until this go around s when I did a ton of studying.i have eggs in the incubator, eggs under a broody hen and eggs under 2 other broody hens!!! I've been candling the incubator eggs daily so I've been watching closely. My white silkie hen Mellie, was sitting on roughly 30 flipping eggs!! I candled them all in less than 10 minutes and instantly knew some were duds, I removed 4 of those. Then my other two hens Curio and Nellie are each sitting on 6 eggs a piece 4 out of the 12 were not growing or weren't fertile so I took those out. It takes alot of time patience and practice to master candling. I feel confident in my ways now, and practically instantly know whether baby is forming or not!
