Mmm, what color of shell? I know with dark brown eggshells, it can be real hard to see and a lot say to candle on day 10 for those. I could see veins and the heart beating in all of the eggs except for those two. So, I don’t know, really. It’s less confidence and more blind optimism?
Sometimes that's all you've got!
I can get down with blind optimism! It’s a medium-ish brown, milk chocolate colored shell. I’m very hopeful and probably should not have candled but curiosity got the best of me. It’s one of my BA eggs.
Oh, yeah, definitely couldn’t see the air cell in #21. Dark shell too. I think my problem is it started getting too bright in my room ( I tried to beat sunrise but didn’t quite win ). My dark brown eggs layers are my ISA browns. The rest lay light brown and white
I have 3 people wanting 10 pullets each and a 4th wanting to buy whatever’s left. Some of the chicks are for me to keep, though ( the cochins & the assorted eggs if they turn out to be pullets ). I have two coops, so I’m not worried about space right now. The biggest one is a 15x12 and the second one that’s not in use yet is a 12x12.
I’d give it maybe until day 12 and if you still can’t see anything, I’d probably call it. It sounds like it’s infertile, honestly. What kind of candler are you using?
A dark room helps a TON.
It’s the candler that came with the Farm Innovators 4250 incubator. It looks like a flashlight with its own power cord.
