Thanks , not sure what's going on ,, everything seems to be ok apart from this ??
 
Hmm, I haven't really seen any like that either. Are you positive it's on day twenty? Have they been hand turned or in an autoturner?
 
Hand turned 3 or 4 times a day , on top of that incubator will turn them as well ,put them in 4th so day 20 today , or 19 for some depends how you count it .. It looks like they are growing only on the half of the egg , no idea what that white part is ???
 
Were these shipped eggs? Do you see any movement? That's what my eggs looked like when they were quitters... :hmm
 
yes they were shipped but everything was going well until last week when I noticed that , many times I candled them and they looked ok, plenty of movements still today on day 21 .
 
I had eggs from my ducks that I hatched and 2 of them had some clear area in it like that on day 20 and they hatched. Keep a close eye on it for changes
 
At day 20 they should fill up most of the egg for a duck egg and ready to hatch in a week. Can you check your temperature of your incubator with 2 other thermometers because I think it is too low? Like 5 degrees too low. Something is just not right.
