    Concerned about my clutch
    Hello, I have a clutch of seven eggs and two, maybe three started dimpling after only two days. I checked the temp and they're about 88 degrees and the humidity is at 98%.

    Should I be concerned?

    How are you measuring temperature and humidity?
    Pictures would help.

    I have a heat gun and a hydrometer with its probe inside the deli dish (I have the small holes taped up except for two holes). I'll post picture shortly.

    Here are two different angles. I just candled each eggs and they all have strong veins so that's good.

    I dont see too much of a problem. Did the eggs sit out awhile before you got to them? Give it a couple days and see if they plump up. That usually occurs when eggs are left out and not collected within a certain time frame of being laid. They should be fine!

    Well, I checked the night before and woke up and found the eggs there and removed them so they weren't sitting in the rack for too long. There were no dimples when I took them out. I just added another hydrometer to see if the other one is malfunctioning.
