So I got some splash cochins off ebay last week and they were sent out Tuesday priority mail(so 2-3 days) on one of the nicest weeks we have had so far! Of course the stinkin post office didnt deliver them until Monday and it was cold all weekend and freezing all day. I bought 10 she sent 12 and one was cracked and I am almost sure that they were frozen at some point. The eggs were extremely cold. I let them warm up to room temp and decided to candle them to see where the air sacks are and I cant seem to find them anywhere! I had placed them pointy end down in an egg carton and will put them in the incubator in the morning but should I be worried? Are these eggs scrambled? I guess I will candle in a few days and see if there is any sign of life...
Also I have 7 eggs in the bator now that I candled at day 3 and saw viens in all and then candled tonight and saw some more but my question is how do you know if you have quitters? Do you have to wait till after the hatch is done to find out and what should I be seeing at day 8?
Sorry about all the questions, thanks in advance for any reply's!
