How can you see liquid jiggling inside an egg with no air?

what.

I was in a very dark room.candle at big end but where the air cell should be its liquid jiggling.

You can only see liquid jiggle if you shake it. DON"T SHAKE it. Is it possible it's a detached air cell?

CH - If eggs are super fresh the air cell can be very small and hard to see. I hope you did not "jiggle" your eggs to test them.

Having hatched thousands of chicks I am firmly of the opinion that the more you handle and candle eggs the fewer will hatch.

I candle at day 10 and sometimes at day 18 and that is it.

I know it is super exciting to watch them grow but if you think that each time you pick them up you could be killing the chick it may help to subdue the temptation.

My advise is set them and then WALK AWAY FROM THE BATOR

What everybody is telling you is to leave them alone. If they just showed up today, let them sit 24+ hours. If they are ready to set, set them. But leave them alone.
