    Egg issues please help.

    I just noticed today that 5 of my 6 eggs incubating have a funky colored spot on them.
    Should I be worried?
    It's a Mojave × Mojave clutch laid on july 21.
    I have another clutch in the same incubator that should be hatching this week, they look great.
    What's gone wrong with these eggs?

    That happens sometimes but has no effect on development.

    Those are windows nothing to worry about, they are due to lack of calcification of that specific area of the egg.

    No worries,they are fine. Just handle the eggs as little as possible.
