I know it's only been two days of incubation but when should I see veins in firtle eggs? When Should I candle the eggs?

Here's a day-by-day chart from Metzer in terms of candling eggs that might be helpful: https://www.metzerfarms.com/Candling.cfm

I usually see veins around 4-5 days.

I Candle between day 7 and 10 so I can see an actual heartbeat.

So, of an initial 17 eggs, one is clearly developing, four were unviable/lost and twelve more are unknown for now, right? Here's hoping for a baker's dozen of Call Cuties...
