Totally! I would do a breeding program and be a small "breeder", but isn't there paperwork involved? Plus that suds like to much work.
Do you guys think you can give me some insight on weird air cells?
I know for eggs and chickens I'd need to join NPIP which is definitely doable but as far as weird egg cells, I am no help lol are they looking detached?

No, but If I'm looking at it right, they don't look like the normal round air cell. There like, bubbly? They have random weird curves and places where they bulb out. I'll post a picture. They also seem huge for day 5. I'm pretty sure I'm looking at the air cell, I am stumped.
I've read a lot of posts on incubating, and saddled and detached air cells, I've never seen this.
 
Heres a pic of one of the eggs-

Thats the air cell right? It glows red when I position the candler right. All of the eggs have air cells like this to. Isn't that weird! I can also see lots of clear veins, the camera just isn't focusing on them.

If they really got scrambled it’s possible you could have a ruptured air cell

Oh no, I really hope thats not it! The eggs are doing so good, if that is the issue, what can I do about it?
All the eggs were in good condition when they arrived, no cracks or broken eggs. Tell me what you think of the pics. I'm gonna tag @MGG @shawluvsbirds and @FoodFreedomNow and see what they think.
 
I tried to get a pic from the side, but not enough light shined into the egg to show were the air cell is. I did get pics of both sides of the egg thought. I took pictures of two eggs, to show the difference, but who there the same. They all look like that.

Egg # 1

In this egg, the one side has a bulge and the other is normal. Sorry for the bad photo quality, the camera wouldn't focus.
Egg #2

You can hardly even see the air cell on this one, the pictures are so bad. Maybe you can make it out.

I’m afraid I don’t know how to identify one I mentioned it because it sounded like the description I read on what that looks like.
