Turn the lights off when doing so, easier to see.

    Btw, those are some big eggs congrats, and I hope you get a bee or 2 or 3 lol

    I think I am going to wait a few days. When I air out the container, I'll do it then. Hopefully I'll see veins.

    Can anyone share things I should be doing over the next 60 days? The sticky thread said to open the egg container every 3-5 days so that the eggs do suffocate. Any other tips? Like what I should do at day 20, 30, 40 etc, etc. Thanks.

    I removed my press and seal after day 50 and also started opening up the egg tub every day after day 50 for about 20 seconds for air exchange. Other than that I don't know of anything that should change as time goes on.

    I just checked on the eggs for the first time since Monday. There was condensation on the press n seal. Is this normal? I quickly changed it out because I didn't want the water to drip on the eggs. I placed a paper towel sheet under the press n seal like the sticky tub suggested. Please advise if this is ok. thanks.
