We are coming to an end on day 14 and I just finished up cancelling all 24 eggs. Here is what I found: A) B) C) I would love to hear what you all think!?
Agree... Egg B might just be a dark shell, could be good or a quitter... If it doesn't smell, leave it in...
Here is a pic of a day 14 egg. By day 14 the egg should be starting to look full of chick My thoughts would be A - infertile B - good because it looks full and dark, a pic showing the air sac would be good though. C- quitter, you can see the vein there but no dark mass that would be chick. Here is a set of pics with all the day's developments in https://www.backyardchickens.com/web/viewblog.php?id=230
Thank you all for your opinions!! As we all guessed "Egg A" was a no-go. I opened the egg this morning and this is what I found: "Egg B" I believe to be healthy. The egg has an air sac at the top which I believe is a good size for the egg. The dark mass is in the middle of the egg with a light[er] section at the bottom (room for the chick to continue to grow) "Egg C" I believe to also be a no-go. I do believe the embryo started to form, which is why we see the veins, but as you can see by my previous posts we had a VERY rough start which may be apart of stunted development. Most of my eggs look like Egg B. Hoping for the best! My fingers are crossed- only three more days until lockdown!!
