So mama rejected one of the eggs because it didn't stick to the pile. I've tried pushing it gently back in to the pile but she keeps pushing it back out. Luckily I had a back up incubator so little 'lone eggy' as he has been dubbed, is getting artificially incubated by himself. He is healthy and has strong veins, but I think she didn't want to risk not being able to heat the whole clutch just because of a single egg who didn't stick to the others.
