As far as the weeping eggs - I have a quick question. Does anyone know if it is possible for an egg to be weeping (a small dab of clear substance, almost looks like glue? Don't know where it came from but I don't think it was there before) and still alive?
I'm on Day 12. I noticed this little dab on one of my Marans eggs. It's completely hard and dry. I was worried it might be rotten and damage my other 50 eggs, so I candled it. It had a definite mass inside, and just as I was going to put it back, it jerked involuntarily. So there's a chick inside.
Is it likely that the spot I see is from something else? How could it be weeping if it's developing?
The wonderful thing about a broody is that she had a built in knowledge about these things. I am sure if they egg was not good, she will know, and dispose of it when she knows it is rotten.Hello I'm new here but I was wondering how long is it OK to leave a egg under my hen that's to dark to tell if its developing? Were at day 11 now how long does it take to get sappy or smelly before the detonation?
