    Week old eggs

    So for the past two days I've noticed what I thought was a water spot on one of my eggs that was laid about a week ago. I've since tilted my egg tub and removed my press and seal which was dry and no condensation was on it. But this morning I noticed the egg with the "water spot" has these neon green spots on it. It appears to be minimally sweating out of the "water spot". I candles all the eggs and this one still has nice strong veins (I also saw the embryos wiggling in the other eggs!) . I can't find any information on these crazy neon spots aside from one thread and the poster lost his whole clutch. However the spots developed much later during incubation.

    Any help? Is the egg just going bad? I will take some pictures tonight.

    I have the same problem as you do. 4 of 5 eggs have gone bad. Now day 32 and last egg has started to sweat. I put some elmers glue to wet spot, the baby is moving inside the egg. This really sucks.

    Do the eggs have a bad smell to them? The eggs themselves look good. Sometimes you will see an egg that has a spot that has not calcified properly.

    That spot has developed since the egg has been laid. Probably day 3/4 into incubation. It hasn't gotten bigger and is sweating less today. Beautiful veins in the eggs still

    Good to hear, hopefully it stays nice an healthy!

    Are the other eggs goners or have they started rebounding?

    Yep! I'm with Will on this. Poor calcification and not any real harm to the egg. Especially if there is no smell or moldy accumulation.
    Stay in peace and not pieces.
