If you can do pictures again at what you would think day 17 or 18 would be that would be helpful. If you think it is safe to handle that is.

No I don’t have an incubator. It’s not something I can afford right now. I am flummoxed as to how this happened. 1 day, 2 days, ok. I was afraid of that and it’s one reason why I moved eggs on day 4. But 7days? 9 days? Flummoxed! It’s upsetting knowing these probably won’t make it.Yes 6 looks clear as the others said. 9 & 10 are hard to see with the shell color but I would definitely leave them in. A few are at different development days, so expect a staggered hatch. Do you have an incubator available in case momma hen abandons any eggs that are close to hatching but much later than the early chicks?
Are you saying that the one that you said that earlier than day 18 is that one going to hatch first? Or is that going to hatch later than 2, 3, and four?1 is either a quitter, clear or early on. Not enough of the egg is filled. 2,3, and 4 looked good. 5 is clear, 6 I see veins but not filled enough to be day 18,. 7 is hard to tell but may be good, 8 is alive but again looks earlier than day 18. And 9 is hard to tell but doesn't look like day 18, 10 is hard to tell.
I am not an expert so see what others say too
I think it will hatch later. At day 18 the chick should fill just about the whole egg.Are you saying that the one that you said that earlier than day 18 is that one going to hatch first? Or is that going to hatch later than 2, 3, and four?
