Hey guys, I need help. I'm on day 4 of incubating quail eggs in the incubator. The eggs were given to me so I'm not sure how long they have sat. I placed them in water ( no detergent or scrubbing involved) before setting them and candled for damage to the shells. I noticed a slight smell this evening in the area where the incubator is. How can I tell if I have a rotten egg and which one it is? I don't normally candle again until day 9 ( these are Bobwhites) can I wait that long or should I candle now? I've never had a rotten egg in the incubator before.
