Good egg, or bad?

[petchickenlover]

we have an egg, it obviously has something in it, but..

The broody hen is no longer sitting on it...
Its been hot out...
Whatever is in the egg moves around when you turn the egg.
Its been at least 2 weeks.
there is no blood ring.
She did sit on the egg, for about two weeks..

is there a way to tell if the egg is good?

Can you see veins and/or movement when you're holding the egg still? Has it been out from under the broody for 2 weeks?

If its moving, then I would say its alive. But candle it, if you don't see veins, and the ones you do see are blotchy, then its probably dead. I'd incubate it for a while.
If it starts rotting...its also dead

well. we opened the egg and it looked like it stopped developing in the second week

thanks for the help
