No she can not help you and neither can I. I can tell you from the information you have given so far I would put the poor bird out of its misery.

@incubateme
Can you not see anything? How many lumens is your candler?

Dead embryos will have a sort of haze to the AC/embryo line.

Can you see drawdown?

(Sorry if you happened to answer these questions in your post, goin off memory here)

No clue what lumens ir drawdowns are

Have you read the info in Hatching 101? LOTS of good info there. Really. Lumens has to do with how strong your candler is, light-wise. Draw down is something that you can (reportedly) see toward the end when the chick is getting ready to hatch. (I've never seen it myself, as I don't candle at this point.)

How did the hunting go today, whites?

Saw several here this morning; nothing old enough to take.
Hunted up the road for a couple hours this afternoon; no birds, no squirrels, no deer. So exciting I kept falling asleep.
Speaking of sleeping, I need to do some of it so I can get up before dawn in the morning to do it all over again.

Was going to ask how the doors were coming along.
