"Thanks writerofwords....those pictures and your dating the egg really helps!

 

[WriterofWords]

They have two dates on them, 4/7 when they were placed in the 'bator, and 4/28 when they are due.

These are some of the different eggs on day 8, one I has some sort of issue on the inside of the shell, it almost looks like it's cracked internally but the veins are forming beautifully. These went in the incubator at 10:31am on 4/7/11, they were candled at 1:15 on 4/15/11

The one that looks odd, I'm going to post it on a thread of it's own too and see if anyone has any ideas.

We set our eggs on the same day and are due on the same date WriterofWords! I'm candling tomorrow...I KNOW a lot of my eggs will be infertile...the seller gave me an extra dozen because she didn't check. So..I have 24 eggs...Hoping that 12 are good. ....and that I see something that tells me they are good. That one egg of yours did have strange "marbaling". weird. Let us know what you find out.
Did you see your air cells pretty good? With your light at the top I really couldn't see them. Just wondered.

Thank you! These hatched yesterday. They look so much like Ameraucanas to me at first. But they sure don't turn out like them.

The air cells are extremely obvious. We were doing a very rapid candling today, most of them I just put the light on the top and we noted if there were veins or clear. A couple that had really good veins and the moving specks in them I picked up to show the kids. Next week when we candle and remove the clear ones we will get a better look at them and I will pick up more of them.
