She said/He said Who's right? Who's wrong? No one!

Have you tried candling from the air cell end down? You can make more sense of what's going on when you candle down into the egg from the big end and not from the bottom or side.

They would be fertile, just non-viable because of damage at the cellular level.

I have. But I find it difficult to hold the egg without dropping it with the flashlight on top and take a picture. Maybe I should make a cradle for pictures...
 
Did ya'll hear me earlier then???

Aw, hon... :hugs

I just think you're an awesome person and very glad to call you friend... :)
 
Glad you've got beautiful weather. The wind howled and the rain beat against the windows all night. Surprised the trees behind the run and green house didn't come crashing down on them. Still coming down heavy. Inside for me today, other than fixing what the wind messed up outside. My SIL coming this afternoon to do a roofing estimate. Hope to get it done before winter.
 
I cant tell if this is a scratch in the ducks waxy coating or a crack

If it is will it still make it to hatch? The little bugger is very active

Can you feel anything there? Maybe drag your fingernail, or the tip of a straight pin across it. If its a crack, you can rub a candle on it. Or just let it be... just keep it positioned where you can watch it for seepage. The membrane is likely intact, so if its not gaping open, I don't think it should hurt anything. Also watch for excessive air cell growth.
