November/December "Hatch-a-Long"

[lizgarf]

I just did a day 13 candle, and I think I may be down to just 1 blue egg. One looked great (destined to be a rooster, I know), but I couldn't see any veins in the other. I could see there was more in the dark area than just yolk, but without any veins in the non-dark area, it doesn't look good. No smell, though.
On the plus side, I was able to see some veins in the marans for the first time - they weren't all crystal clear, but it looks like there is good development in at least some of them.
Most of my eggs appear to me to have saddle-shaped air cells. Are they doomed?
My goodness, mother nature sure seems like one tough broad these days!

Max update- I have no idea what happened. I cuddle her back to life. She seems fine now. I had to leave. I was at a concert with a friend. I texted another friend that I was worried so she went to my house and baby sat Max for me. She said Max was ok but never really calmed down until I got home. She has out grown all her jammies already. I have to make more.

No I hatch shipped eggs all the time, that doesn't seem to stop them from hatching
make sure to have a good amount of humidity for hatching

Omg, can you really potty train your turkey!?

Can I potty-train a silkie?
Haha, probably not- but I did buy cute lil yellow bubble bee and sunflower diapers for my chickens. :x

Btw, I was relieved to hear Max was alright! I was kind of worried the last time I heard he was cold and yada yada :c
