Should the dark spot in the egg move?

[Tacampbell1973]

First broody hen of the year (not planned, but still excited) and what should have candled at a two week embryo just looks like a completely dark embryo that changes form when I roll the egg. Looks like rotten yolk churning in the egg. Am I right? Never candled an egg that did that. Hen still has three other eggs that are a different set date that she will keep if this is a no go. I dont want to throw it out if I am wrong but dont want her to have a rotten egg mess either. Please help, will keep the Green Goo egg warm until IA get the ok from someone to throw it out. Thank you.

I would keep it a few more days and candle it again.

I would toss it.

It should hatch by this weekend . I recandled it again that night and looked normal! Maybe my eyes were playing tricks. Now I have a bigger problem...I left three more fertilized eggs with her thinking the first was bad. They have a set date a week later than the single possible bad egg. I know better than to stagger the hatches like that. S with my luck watch all four eggs hatcg, dumb. Well I have a contingency plan, sort of. Anyway thanks fot the advice tho
ugh. I will know more by Sunday.

Thankks for taking the time to reply to my predicament. As i was saying, I should have a definite answer by this weekend. I just have a real hard time giving up on anything which is why I have almost every roo that I hatched out last year except for one i gave to my neighbor and two or three that got predated. As an aside I already have a name picked out in case the questionable egg does hatch....Goo!
Anyway, thanks again.
