Yesterday on day thirty I eggtopsied the remaining unhatched eggs. three of the seven unhatched one had chicks that were the size of 25 day old chicks they were so cramped in the shell that they couldn't move and the shell was thicker than I've seen.. on had a air sac that took up three quarters of the shell. and the rest were from day 11 to 16 a just didn't developed.
