Dead Chick Question

Seeing two separate membranes is not abnormal, there are always two membranes. For a pic, google (images) "anatomy of an egg"

The incubator is homemade and the trays have 2 screens in them The screen on top has a little lever in the front of the tray. There are dowel rods that run horizontally between each row of eggs and when you pull the lever the eggs roll without moving around. I had to turn them myself which I did at least 3 times a day. My eggs were on their sides the entire time.

I pulled 10 eggs before lockdown. This is my first time, so if I was uncertain I left them.

2 of the mail order eggs didn't show anything. The rest were fertile.

Most of the eggs from looking at pictures look like they were early quitters around day 6 maybe. Only 1 had little wing and leg buds- I guessed day 10.

A lot of the Wyandotte eggs were porous There was one that was so bright I was certain that chick wouldn't make it, but it did!
