Removing eggs

[Chickenp00p]

How long do you all wait to remove eggs from the incubator?

I've seen some at 7 days and one lady said she waits until day 12.

I have a couple that are for sure looking infertile, and one is dark, it looks like it might have a blood ring on the side.

This depends on a person's level of experience. I've been raising birds for over 50 years and learned how to candle when I was 13; I'm now 66. I remove infertile eggs on day 4 or 5. Any DIS eggs are removed each time I candle.

Thank you!
