So have just done our last candle.
The eggs in the incubator have done nothing so all gone in the bin.
Of the six still under penny.
Three look like this, almost totally full of black and cant see the red veins at the bottom.
Two look like this, mostly black but with some veins still showing
and one looks like this which is pretty much what we saw when we candled at day 10.
Are the five all okay even though some are fuller with black than others? Does that mean some are more advanced so could hatch earlier?
The only thing Im concerned about now is that she is nesting on a cardboard base and she wont keep any hay under her so they are going to hatch onto a surface with no grip. I dont know if Its okay to wait till they hatch and then replace it with a bit of carpet Ive got. Its been lying round the back yard so dont really want to put it under the eggs now.
