I candled my eggs today (the eggs are on day 12). They are chicken eggs. All of the white colored eggs were alive and well. On the other hand, I found it very hard to see into the brown colored eggs. I have some that I have no idea about. I've heard that if you leave a dead or infertile egg in the incubator it will explode and ruin the hatch. Is this true? Should I take out the question marks or leave them in until day 22 or 23?
Also, two of the ones I thought were dead/infertile I cracked into an old egg carton over my dumpster. One was obviously infertile, but the other one had a tiny blob of veins. Was this one alive? The veins were no where near the size of the veins I could see in the white eggs. Thanks!!!
