Day 7 Candling Silkie Egg: My clutch in the incubator is staggered and I have eggs from day 7 all the way to day 17 - I’m a first timer and the one in question my youngest. The veining doesn’t seem as prominent. All my other eggs didn’t seem as murky at this stage. It was easy to see the veins in the others but not this one. The black eye comes in and out of view but not sure if it’s movement or a dead floating embryo. Could it be in the process of dying? I used some contrasting in my pics but can I get some of your opinions on this egg? I was worried 2 nights ago about it but did trace the air cell anyway and noticed today it is slightly bigger. Good sign? Thoughts?

So I candled again with my iPhone flashlight and I see veining and movement! Yay! Hope all stays good with it! I have three eggs due to hatch this weekend and more the following two weeks! I’m super excited (and nervous)!
