No seeing veins yet. We don't have a strong enough flashlight.
When typically do you start seeing movement ?
Would you be able to tell if any of these were bad?

Charts my husband made

Shows the weight was low. So we are needing more humidity for this dry area of ours. It's been ranging between 30-55%
We're going to need to keep it up higher and not let it get so low.

Thoughts?

Day 15

I took out those 3 lighter eggs and confirmed them infertile .
I think I have found a quitter too. We're waiting to see today. He weights a tad more then the rest.

Day 18
Had to pull a quitter/ infertile egg.
The rest are moving and see the veins.

Quitter/ infertile. Pulled and opened.. Had bacteria (milky)

Today is the day!!!
I'm taking my eggs off the rotator, turning the heat down and turning the humidity up high, which is quite hard I have learned being out west.
Very excited!!!
I'll post pics in just a bit

Ok I'm late to the party but want to wish you luck!
I think you would have had better luck shining your light into the big end, through the air cell also. I see more movement and development from the top. I've done similar spreadsheets with my hatches also. I'm on day 16 with 11 bantam chicks. Hatched one turkey with some ducks back in March.

Day 24

We had one for sure a goner and were worried there might be a couple more. They are fully developed. What would cause them to quit?

The pictures of the top ones, the air cell looks weird and also we didn't see much movement
