Help Day 17

I've had a broody silkie sitting on this egg and just moved her and egg inside in brooder. I've candled previously and looked fine, today it looks like the attached pictures. I can't tell if it's viable or not. The air cell seems to move around a great deal. Does this look like it will hatch?

If those pictures are accurate, it looks like the air cell is taking up half the egg, which is not good, and I don't see any veining, another bad sign. Unfortunately it does look like it has quit If you want you can leave it under her to see if it does anything but I wouldn't count on it hatching.

I agree, they look like they quit a week or so ago.
