Monster egg

SHHHH

soooo, what ended up happening to this egg????

Just monitor the egg and chick and give the normal 13% loss of original weight by day 18 weight loss. You have a starting weight. Dry hatch until almost day 18 if needed.

So it should lose roughly 10.5 g by day 18? I'm good at chicken math, not real math.

Still incubating, last candling (day 10) showed two (I think) chicks developing. Next candling, day 17, will be Mar 2nd.

13% of 84 grams = 10.92 grams

13% of 84 grams = 10.92 grams

@casportpony any time I need real math help can I just tag you and save myself the trouble?

My guess is that they are new to laying eggs. I have had huge eggs at the beginnning of the season before -- they eventually get down to a normal size.
