I am new to hatching eggs. I usually leave it up to mom. But I got some extra eggs so I put them in an incubator, it held temp and humidity well, I even had backup meters. 2 eggs never developed. One did. At 24 days I candled my egg and saw no movement, but i could see she had made it through the aircell. She was moving fine at day 20. So I poked a hole in the large side to get air into the egg, being much too late I am sure. I was able to se the chicks very twisted beak and odd looking egg tooth. So i pealed the egg back further to see more. She obviosly hadnt made it.
I was devastated, I have been staring at this lone egg for days now. But I had to see the whole thing to get a better idea of what could have happened. I very carefully pulled the egg shell away from the membrane. Then carefully pulling the membrane apart the see what might have happened. I am now just so confused. What did happen? Any ideas?
