How far along is this egg? Update: it's pipped!

[Corey NC]

This is the egg my broody was sitting on and now that my seramas are under her I put this egg in the bator. I think it is pretty close to day 21 what do ya'll think?

 

[Corey NC]

anyone?

 

[tiffanyh]

Im not sure what your asking? We cant tell how many days it is unless you showed us a candling picture.

 

[Corey NC]

That is where the air cell is, the chick is fully formed inside.

 

[speckledhen]

Corey, that aircell could be anywhere from 16-21 days, IMO.

 

[Corey NC]

would it hurt it to continue to turn it til it pips?

 

[ae50mag]

How should I do the humidity?

 

[ae50mag]

ok, since you don't really know how old it is split the difference on the humidity, between the pre and post 18-19 day. when it pips raise the humidity...
