Shouldnt cause any issues... But careful getting it out of there, Ive had plenty of eggs like that with eggs I have gotten shipped in as well, and with all the gasses inside that egg, it dont take much to "set it off", and you will have it all over you and the other eggs!(been there done that a time or 2!)

Hopefully you get some nice cute little babies... My last set date for welsummers is TOMORROW!!! I might be getting one more batch of Marans eggs in yet this year, and then I will be done for the year...

Well today is day 21, we're seen a couple of eggs wiggle, not sure if one is pipped or not and the kids are staring at the incubator! They are so use to having our hatches come on day 20!

We'll post again as soon as we have hatching

Dont get too concerned when they dont hatch out on day 21 either. I dont know what it is about my WELSUMMER LARGEFOWL and the line I have created, but sometimes I dont get a hatch for 23-25 days... It is really weird, but in the end it all seems to work out fine.

Yes, they are quite loud, and will be! Very healthy and Robust chicks, even tho they do take 22-24 days to hatch usually.
