November Hatch-a-long...

Pics
I am setting 10 BBS Ameraucauna eggs tonight (from Gypsy Hen). They were shipped so that may affect my hatching percentages but this is my first hatch and I am super excited! I know what to expect for the most part but who knows. I just wanted to join in on my first Hatch-A-Long!
Good luck with your first!

I need some opinions here on the age of these three eggs. For most of my 17 eggs, It is day 4, however a handful came directly from under a broody and were supposed to only be a few days ahead. Most were barely started, but the other three? Ummm, not so much batman!

Egg 1: the smallest, possibly from the pullet in the pen, but I think the most advanced. Egg is almost full, and embryo is very active, but no air sack progression.

Eggs 2 and 3 are nearly identical, standard size Silkie eggs. I think they are a day or two behind egg 1? They have had air sack progression over the past four days, and candled upside-down (pointy end) there is plenty of room in the egg (4th image).

:eek:
the first egg looks like it could be a 12-14 day egg. The others look like 10-12 to me.
