November 24th,
Currently I have 5 Mallard duck eggs in my brinsea octogon 20 eco, 3 of the eggs were put in before the other two so they have been developing longer. So I think every time I candle them I will upload some pictures here? :)
This is the 4th day for the 3 older eggs, and day two for the 2 other eggs. I'll try and candle tonight and upload pictures of both sets.
When I candled last night Group one ( 3 older eggs) had veins and I saw tiny hearts beating! Kinda surprised at how early the heart had developed tho.I think I had the tempature set to high wich may have caused them to grow quicker!? Anyway group two ( 2 younger eggs) just had darker yolks than the day before.

Group one day four:








group two day two




The grey "2" is just pencil



Pictures from the 25th,

Group one day 5 sorry these pictures are not the best, when I candle tonight I'll take the pictures with my better camera!










Group two on day 3! Look how much they developed from day 2! On day two all that was visible was a yolk!





In the right bottom side is the heart!



Pictures from November 26th

I could only get a picture of one of the day 6th eggs sorry!

So here is the picture of the group one day 6 egg

I saw movement in one of the group 1 eggs!
