Need some help on my eggs' air pockets

[Chickenlover106]

Hey guys, can someone give me 3d pictures of air cells from day 1-18? My eggs' air cells are located to their sides. They're still on day 2.

That sounds like a detached air cell. I don't think it will hatch.

Were they shipped eggs, and did you set them with the large end up, for 12 hours before putting them in the incubator? In the incubator, are they on their sides, or large end up?

I agree with oldhenlikesdogs. I have had some luck in hatching eggs when the air call is at the wrong end of the egg, but no luck, myself, in hatching eggs with the cell to the side like that.

 

[Chickenlover106]

No, they weren't shipped. I got them from my own hen

They're set with their large ends up. And most of my eggs have that kind of air cell... Almost all of them I think

If it is candled correctly, and the air cell is on the side, it's hit or miss with hatching. Give it a try, and see what happens.

Does detached air cell move when you rotate the egg? Mine doesn't move.

 

[getaclue]

Yes, normally a detached air cell moves.

I'm kind of confused now.. Mine doesn't seem to move at all
