Unsure?

I had been watching a wild turkey sit on 8 eggs,but unfortunately a predator got the nest. The chicks I saw were fully developed, one egg still unhurt, but out of the nest, I brought home and have it incubated.I candled it and see no blood line, but also no movement. Is there anyway to know if the chick is still alive?

do you know what day it is? And does it look developed?

 

[Eggy1220]

Not sure on the day, but the chicks left broken and left looked fully developed.

Not sure on the day, but the chicks left broken and left looked fully developed.

Then the egg you have should be fully/close to fully developed too. Do you have a picture of the candled egg?

I do Not, but the veins show it is mostly dark only the big part of the egg is light.

I do not, but its all dark but the big end. I can make out little veins, but again no movement.
