    So are these eggs any good?

    Well my female wouldn't curl around the eggs to incubate them, and she just rolled them out of her way to get into the spot where they were. So I put them in the incubator, the temps were at 85 and climbing. Got it set for 89 degrees. I just am hoping that the rolling around didn't hurt the eggs. And I hope these are good eggs. Here are 2 pics I snapped when I moved the eggs to the incubator. Are they good? Or are they slugs? I removed the 2 eggs that were noticable slugs befor taking the pictures.

    Here they are with flash from camera


    And without flash

    They look good to me. Do you have a pen light?

    Did you candle them? I know rollouts often go bad during incubation but they look good to me. I would incubate them and just keep an eye on them. You should be able to tell in a week or so if they will go full term.

    Yeah, she just sounds like a disinterested mom. I wonder if she'll do better next time? If they candle with veins, assume they're good.

    I did lose one of my fertile eggs this year. It was a little smaller than the others in the clutch, and it was after a small heat spike. So, maybe it's not surprising? But I had a whole lot of uglier eggs make it through just fine, including one roll-out.
