Love seeing those first little blobs. It's amazing they will turn into fully formed chicks in 21 days.

Finding the little peanuts is fun!

It looks like 1, maybe 2 weren't 'fertile' or didn't even begin to form. I'll be checking tomorrow or Tuesday.

Day 7? Still looks like one B9 is infetile/dud.

Didn't take pics of all . Difficult to take pics of the OE but could see i all but two, but could see veins.

B3's photos are of it moving

Omg! I havent checked on the eggs since Monday!!! LOL! Yes, i know I dont have to check daily or whatnot. I just tend to.

Checked them and all seem to be growing and moving. B9 is infertile/didnt start. And now i cant remember what one looked funky, like the embryo was deep in egg not near outter edge like others. Time will tell!
