    Egg Question

    So I have a clutch of eggs from a Pastel x Pewter breeding that are on day 52 at 88.5. The condensation has gotten worse in the past 10-14 days, but the eggs have yet to start to dimple at all. They're still candling fine, with some strong veins. Should I be worried at all about this?

    I incubated at 90.5 last year and got my first pip at day 52.
    Some dimpled and a few never did.
    Being that your temps are a little lower it wouldn't surprise me if it took a few more days.
    Good luck

    I'm not worried about them not pipping yet, but everything I've read has mentioned the eggs dimpling about 2-3 weeks out and they've yet to do that.

    Should be fine. Some eggs just don't dimple when they are ready. No big deal.
