Hello!

I was incubating 4 eggs. Two for sure is not viable but can you guys look at these other 2? We are on day 8. I can’t see veins anymore just blobs.

Thank you

As the embryo grows and fills the egg, veining becomes less evident.
 
Another view of first egg

The one on the left looks about right for day 8. Give 'em until day 14 and see if they get any bigger. Sit on hands until then. (The one on the right looks dead to me too.)

it might be clearer if you candle the egg from the air cell, look very closely for veins or movement. It's hard to see as it doesn't show up that well on camera, I couldnt say either way from those photos.
I hope they're still developing!

They do not look good. Can you turn the eggs over so that the light is shining into the fat side of the egg and get new pictures?
