Please help me, i'm having an eggsistential crisis!

[Tree29]

I sealed the cracks (Somewhat) before it started oozing so the egg white that did ooz was trapped with the egg. Still?

 

[Tree29]

If they did die, what should I look for when candling?

 

[Nabiki]

Yes, still. At nine days, they're just not going to be able to survive cracked shells. If they were on day 16, they'd have a decent chance, but at day 9, they're pretty much doomed.

If they did die, what should I look for when candling?

Look for a blood ring. They'll also stop developing. Smell for rot. Live eggs will move now and then, dead ones won't.

 

[Tree29]

Dang. What should I do, I only have one non cracked fertile egg?

 

[Tree29]

Will the death happen within an hour because I candled the cracked eggs and I saw veins (Or something that looked like veins) moving?

It might happen quickly or it might take a couple of days.

You're going to want to get a couple more chicks to keep your single chick company if it hatches. Candle it too to make sure it doesn't have any cracks in it. You might want to abort this hatch and try again with at least half a dozen eggs if you can't find any chicks locally.

You're making me blush! I'm an IT geek, so I sit in front of a computer a lot.

Still, you are like a quail super woman!
