I started out with 13 Silkie eggs! Three were blood rings and five were duds. So on hatching day I only had five eggs left and three of them didn't look too promising. Today is day 24 and nothing has happened. There are no pips or cracks in the eggs and I don't know what could have happened. I don't have too much hope in them hatching now, but I want to know what went wrong. I would also like to include that these eggs were set under experienced broody hens not in an incubator. Today I candled them and these are pictures of what I saw.
Number 5 and 13:
Both number 5 and 13 looked like this.
Number 7:
Number seven had particles floating around as you moved it.
Number 12:
Number 12's air cell was detached. During the last candling it wasn't detached.
Number 10:
Number 10 was dark with a huge air cell.
