Viable egg?

[Catharinejo]

Our bantam has been sitting on 3 eggs and today is day 10. I candles the eggs and I’m wondering if what I’m seeing is the start of a blood ring. I left it under the hen for now but I wanted to see what you all thought. I figured I could look again in a day or 2.

At day ten you should see the embryo. Your egg looks like it quit at some point.

Unfortunately, that does look like a blood ring...sorry!

Check again tomorrow, looking for a centralized embryo with veins coming from it. There is usually an outer ring, but that looks way too distinct.

Thanks!

Looks like a quitter to me.
