turkey eggs.. 6 days from hatch and worried

[yoyobantam]

Hi,

I have 3 turkey eggs.. they are 6 days away from hatching and I was looking at the air cells and they really are not where they should be for being this far along.
I took the water out of the incubator for now and will put it back for lock down. But I am worried because the air cells are really closer to where they should be for day 10.. not day 22..

I'm not sure, but I think they should be okay. Sometimes, its hard to tell when candling, the exact shape of the air hole.

I hope it all works out!

Well the smallest egg hatched. And the other two died in the shell. So heartbroken.

I'm so sorry about the other two eggs. I know losing babies is tough, but there is always opportunity to try again for more turkey poults! And you get to enjoy the one little hatchling from here

I'm sorry to hear about that.

I'm glad one of them hatched though!
