BE PATIENT WHILE READING

If you Don't know the story, go back to my last thread, "Am i able to incubate a muscovy duck egg?"
As you know i only have now one muscovy duck egg as i have to toss the other one because it was a dud... Now, my muscovy duck egg seems healthy on day 17 and i did not yet candle on day 18.... Now it is day 19 and I don't know if it is okay...... The air cell seems good to me... BUT the embryo! There were like blood spots inside, many of them, and there was a large, thick black vein across the egg.....However i can still see several excellent veins colored red...... There is still translucent small side of the egg that i can see red veins..... When i candle, i can see the embryo...... But it is not moving..... When i turn the egg in the incubator and candle again for the second time, i can see it moves and wiggles in the egg for a about a minute and stops again.... The egg smells good and does not even smell rotten and i know if it is rotten it would yurn into color blue! I do not have a thermometer so i am manually sensing the heat of the egg,so far i think it is not overheat because the egg only felt warm.... And i also do not have a hygrometer so i am manually measuding the amount of humidity inside the incubator with the use of my hand....

AND IF possible please hand me some pictures of a muscovy duck egg candled at day 19 and with 180 degrees of rotating around the egg, so that i can see all sides of the egg.


VERY LONG THREAD!
 
I would stop handling it so much. Muscovy go 35 days so you will need to be patience. It is either alive or not at this point. I generally don't candle more than once to remove any clear eggs. The rest I let go unless they are stinking.
