Okay every time I purchase eggs, they fail. I purchased Blue Andalusian eggs and they seemed to be doing good and the last week, everything went wrong and the air sac looked like 2 big arches. Well I let it go since I saw movement, but now learned that the arches are a bad thing. I had one hatch, which had difficulty breathing and was deceased this morning. Now, all of my own eggs hatch and I have had no problem. So this morning I checked the last 3 Andalusian eggs and there was no life, so I opened them.
The membrane had tighten around them and caused them to suffocate, because it was to tight and tough.
Can someone tell me what may cause this in shipped eggs and what I can do differently when I receive the new order. If this next hatch fails, I guess I will try to find day old chicks.
(1 for each chick that did not make it)
