    very dented
    So starting at week two my eggs began to dent. I put press and seal on the container and most plumped back up some but I have three that are still very dented and have stayed that way through out incubation. As of right now my eggs are 45 days old and when I candled them the two very dented eggs are completely full with only a tiny space to let light through... I'm worried that the dent may cause problems for the hatchling inside.. It's about 3/4 inch dented in.

    I know it's WAY to early to cut on a normal basis but I'm wondering If I should cut the worst of the two to try and give the baby more room to move/ grow. Temps have been at 88 with spikes up to 91. Any advice is appreciated, I will try to get pictures if needed, waiting on batteries to charge.

    Don't cut. You'll lose them, and then you'll wonder if it was the dents that did it, or your cutting.

    If the denting is the only thing wrong, I think they stand a pretty good chance of being okay.

    Can you post a picture?
