First time candler, blood ring???

Ugh. Geez. I feel like all my eggs look similar. I have 17 and this is our first time incubating.

Thanks for your input everyone!

Did u wash the eggs before putting them in?? sometimes washing them wrong can let bacteria in. or if u didnt sanatize ur hands while handling them, or clean the bator before setting them. lots of things can cause blood rings.

No, I didn't wash them or rub them at all. I also wash my hands before handling them. I have read a lot, and feel like I kind of know what I am doing. We shall see I guess. If it doesn't work, we will just try again.

Aw, honey. I'm sorry.

I know it's discouraging. I had 18 in my bator and they were alive and kicking at lockdown. Only 4 have hatched. I'm leaving them... hope of hopes. But they'll go out tomorrow as they are becoming little bombs.

I have duck eggs coming in March. I'm scared to death I'm gonna kill them too.
