[wilmascluckmom]

Today I checked and I have a cracked egg 9 days in its in the air cell not the one I put in upside down but another one the one that was upside down looks ok trying to re settle I think

This was not upside down was fine yesterday help is it a gonner or should I leave it alone I don't think it broke the membrane

Sorry to be so worried but I checked and there is movement but it is chipped and I took a pic but don't have a way to post yet

Some people have posted that they use glue or wax to seal cracks.

I just wanted to share my experience with my latest hatch. All shipped eggs. Dirty eggs have a low hatching rate. Eggs with damaged aircells such as saddle cells or double air cells do have a reduced rate but surprisingly most of them hatched yesterday! Only one needed assistance.
This is only my second incubation so im over the moon!!!

The one that I had that I put in upside down I inverted and this is the 14th day incubation and looking like the others except its veins are higher on one side but it is still moving around in there
