Egg oozing

[Alwayswantchics]

I have a incubating for 25 days and it is oozing something out of it's shell. What could this mean?

Depends on the color of the fluid. If it is cracked and the fluid is clear, and there are definite signs of chick life, it could be ok. If it has ANY color, there could be bacteria in the egg, and there probably isn't a chick. The egg could get very stinky, or even explode. Be very careful handling it, rotten egg smell is HORRIBLE. If the egg was fertile, it should have hatched 20-22 days after being incubated.
