    Egg advice/help please
    At what stage of incubation would you expect eggs to start getting deflated bits please

    We are one day 37 and I am seeing some major dimpling in the eggs

    Temps are consistent at 31.5, humidity is at between 95-100%. I am briefly opening the tub every week to allow air exchange.

    It's my first clutch, all candled amazing at the beginning healthy veins etc xx

    At those temps I would expect to start seeing some collapse anytime around day 40. Doesn't sound to concerning.

    Non - issue. Just maintain the current humidity percentages and you will be okay.

    Usually my eggs do not collapse before the very last week, day 50 or so (they pip at 60), but it can be variable I have had egg collapsing much earlier own and I even had eggs that did not collapse at all. The main concern with egg collapse is to make sure the collapse is not due to humidity issues if it's not it will be fine.

    BTW this

    , is completely unnecessary until the very last week, the less you mess with those eggs the better.
