Do you have a little torch, or the flashlight on your cellphone? Take your egg somewhere dark (a cupboard works during the day), though for a pigeon/dove egg you should be able to see even if it isn't completely dark, and shine the light on the fat end. You should be able to work out what's happening inside it using that technique.

As long as there are veins that's a good sign. Sometimes the chick is sleeping, so doesn't move.

A mystery egg. Exciting! Have you got some hand rearing formula on hand if you are successful?

Those veins look good. Hopefully someone with more experience with pigeons will chime in.

It looks slightly under-developed for day 15, as it should be hatching in 2 days. @casportpony
