Hi, shaking eggs are good. I usually peep at the egg, even thru an incubator to see if someone will answer me.
I keep my humidity as high as I can unless it fogs up the window. It's usually 65, but raises itself during hatching.
My Jersey Giants lay a very long egg, light brown, but it's a big egg.
Marans usually lay a real dark egg with speckles. But my Orp was laying darkish brown eggs with speckles. I don't know anything about bantams.
The movement can be for a day or two. Then you will see a pip, and it can still take a day. I had a chick shrink wrap because mom left the nest and had to finish it in a very high humidity incubator and lay it on a wet paper towel. It also took 24 hours to absorb the veins under the shell.
