Super blacks are not known to have this difficulty so I attribute this to something that went wrong during incubation. I think it is coincidence that both of them happened to be super blacks. One of them was on the bottom of a tall egg pile and may have been too moist (the vermiculite).

Most super blacks have a "duck billing" issue where their snouts look a little pinched.
It looks like they got tangled in the egg with is a developmental issue & can happen no matter what the morph. Sorry it happened to be the Super Blacks. Nice year otherwise though- awesome stuff!
