    Update on the eggs.

    Well today is day 36 for the eggs and out of the 10, 4 went bad. I knew they were not good as when candled there were no veins. All the others have lots of veins. The only thing is that a few of the eggs have started to dent but all the others are still plump. Is that normal or what?

    How is your humidity? Sorry to hear about the 4 but it happens sometimes.

    Re: Update on the eggs.

    Sorry about that. I had a clutch of 8 and have only one left.
    A lot of veins = a good sign. What is your humidity level?

    Re: Update on the eggs.

    the humidity is around 95%, no biggie on the 4 though, I knew they were not good. Hopefully the others will stay good.

    Re: Update on the eggs.

    Aric,
    I would say that of the remaining eggs, if they have alot of veins in them, I would not worry about the denting, as eggs can start to dent at that stage of incubation. Good luck with the rest of the eggs.
