Oh good, so I'm not the only one who wants to try.. Lol It may seem wrong to some but if it was left in the nest I am sure the hen would try to hatch it.... That being said... Mine is in my bator also.. I had to see what happens.. Good or bad.

We are in this together then. I will let you know in 5 days if I have any development.

Yep we are. I will let you know also on if there is any development in mine.

Oz, when you say you've never had a rolling air cell hatch, do you mean completely detached? I have some shipped turkey eggs in the bator now and they almost ALL had loose air cells, but not completely detached...they're developing so far (day 14).

yes i mean completely detached - rolling from end to end

Chad brought an marans egg to check out my candler!

It works!!! YAY!!




oh doh here are the eggs! one Marans is that candle above

I just now bought both the candler and the batteries! I needed something that would see into my Maran eggs too- and it is early enough to not be urgent, but soon enough to still use it and see young babies inside if it arrives on Monday! THANK YOU!!!

Hey well i candled the eggs to pick out the bad ones but i seen this is all the ones i knew were alive. Did they all die or is it just normal incubation results on day 8? im really nervous i killed them please tell me im wrong.

it is so hard to tell from still images, are you saying you saw veining and now you are seeing just a dark blob? no bloodring? or what are you seeing? What I do with anything this early and is questionable sniff and if they dont stink keep them in and recandle in a few days You seen no movement and you did see movement?

We are still missing a lot of egg set numbers!
Please continue to post in this thread the number of eggs you set.
We need to get all the numbers in to announce the winner of the first contest.

If you did not set any eggs, please post that as well.​

I set 35- 33 still cooking after the 7 day candling.
