Odd Shaped Egg Development on day 7

[AmyLynn2374]

Ok, I understand. So with the first egg the air cell was most likely detached or really loose when it arrived and partially detached when you started turning them. Are these in an auto-turner? That air cell is a crazy shape because it was loose and reattached in that shape. I had an egg like that but it quit during hatch time. I would recommend that you trace that aircell on day 18/19. What breed are these? If that egg makes it to lockdown you're going to have to keep an eye on it to see if the chick can pip into the air cell. There's a high chance that chick can be malpositioned due to the shape of the air cell. I would say that the air cells look a little big for day 7 on the others. They look big at the first trace. Which means they might not have been super fresh when they shipped out or shipping loosed up the air cells and made them appear bigger. What humidity are you running? And what incubator are you using. Increase by like 10% and recheck them at day 10 or 12.

You are such a great helper!!!

I totally agree. The air cells look big for day 7.
