I started with 12 eggs...

Candled yesterday (day 11):
The same two that were clear the first time were still clear.
The one that looked like a quitter the first time is still a lot smaller than the others, but I think it's bigger than it was the other day. I'm still not giving up on it.
There's on that's in a smaller shell than the others, it seems smaller like the one I thought was a quitter.
So far, we have ten with well defined air sacs and growing blotches.
Lockdown is about a week away; I'll probably candle at that point unless something starts stinking or leaking.

I'll post more pics when they start hatching.

Oh okay hope the other two are good!

Yay!
 
Update:

Today is day 17 (as of 2pm). I candled the eggs again tonight. The two that had been clear aren't anymore!!! There were well defined air sacs and dark blotches in every single egg. Each one seems to be larger than the last time I candled. I'm so excited I can't even contain myself. =D
Tomorrow is lock-down, no more turning from 2pm on and I'll put a dish of water in the same part of the box where the light is.
Hatch date is Wed, Jan 15, but some of them are probably going to take longer, so there's no real way of knowing.
I'm so excited I can hardly wait!!!
