Oreo just took a break and I was able to gather her eggs this morning and candle them, and I most definiately have 8 out of 11 very viable distinct veins! The other 3 weren't, 2 of them were just plain clear, the other one started to get 1 vein but I think ended up dying early on andf getting a blood ring because that one most certainly should have had the day 6 viability appearance as the 8 do. Hey, out of 30 eggs give or take for a 1st time mom, 14 of them are viable. Now to hope and pray everyone of them survives full term and hatching.
So now I have 3 batches 1-2wks apart, 1 single egg due next week, then a week later batch 2 that I pulled 5 are due a week later give or take, and then the batch 3 that I left momma to do on her own is due the weekend of the 23rd give or take. I could have left them all to sit on her own, but not being sure and not being patient to wait rather she'd go broody or not, I'm glad I didn't because I don't know if she'd really be able to lay on all 30 let alone 14. I think having 8 babies to lay on is good for her as a 1st time momma. I'm a happy, happy, lady!
