HELP! FIRST TIME HATCHING AND DON'T KNOW HOW OLD EGGS ARE!

[jmarissa]

Thank you for all the "welcomes"!

So 2 of my eggs were definitely quitters. Had to toss them last night. No movement, no veins, and they were starting to smell. The good news is, I just candled the 2 remaining eggs and after I put the cover back on both eggs started shaking! Do I go into lockdown now? Or wait until I see an internal pip?

Since they're moving, I would go into lockdown now. Good luck with them

Thank you! In lockdown now. 98.5 degrees, correct?
