Yesterday morning (now it's late night one day later) I found an egg, it had fallen recently and had a small hole at the top. It was not leaking and I tried to cover it anyways. The membrane has now closed part of the hole (I doubt it will fully heal), I've been keeping it warm and tried to set appropiate humidity. I've been candling it but I couldn't tell yet if it was fertile or not. The thing is, today during evening I candled it again and I saw something brown/dark floating under the air sack and next to what I guess it would be the yolk (I'm afraid I don't have any experience at all with this, that's why I'm asking). I don't know if it might be the embryo, I highly doubt it. Anyways, there I have a photo. I'd like to know if anybody can tell if it's fertile or not, or if it's a lost case. I think it might be soon to fully tell if it's not fertile, I pretend to keep it a couple of days more or so, and if nothing changes I'll just leave it. I don't know if I should have left it from the start, to be honest...

What has me concerned is that dark thing floating, I just don't think it can be an embryo...
Anyways, here is the photo. The attempts of saving it are utterly awful and lame, but that's all I could do, I just wanted to give this egg a chance. Excuse my ignorance on this topic.
