Disaster Themed Hatchalong and guess the hatch rate on scrambled shipped eggs

Here are the eggs…

View attachment 4250082

And yes, you are being watched, I was cleaning up the last of the Halloween candy and couldn’t help myself! Maybe I’ll hatch me a chicken cyclops, Polyphemus would be a viable name (the cyclops in the odyssey). I don’t think I can candle them though…
Any chick that hatches next to that is gonna jump right back into its shell! 🤣
 
Quail do not fear eye balls, they’ll play soccer or bash each other over the head with it, they are fearless adorable little monsters! Day 3: definitely some development going on, too early to definitively pull eggs as infertile. Air cells still floating around randomly.
 
:celebrate Let's grow disaster quail!
:celebrate go Fitzgerald!

Day 5: only one normal looking air cell in shipped eggs, a couple floaters and a couple seriously saddled ones. 1 darker egg might be infertile, not ready to pull the plug yet, 2 are getting dark and clumpy, not a good sign. Have pulled 3 infertile home eggs (two pullet eggs, no surprise there just grabbed 10 fresh eggs and tossed them in, candled for cracks but nothing else. 7 home eggs, 13 shipped eggs left, 3 are suspicious.

Wow, one good air cell, poor babies really got scrambled in shipping.
