Gross! I decided yesterday it was time to say goodbye to some of our chicken eggs. After candleing them several times I decided some of them just weren't going to hatch. So, as I prepared the incubator for the eggs that might hatch I removed the eggs that I was certain wouldn't hatch. And then. . .I cracked them. I just had to know for sure--if anything had grown or if I had been incubating a bunch of rotten eggs. Well. . .take a look for yourself. Out of 24 eggs we have six left in the incubator and my hopes are a little dashed. We'll know in a few more days I guess.
P.S. Did you know that chicken eggs will explode if they are left incubating too long after the embryo dies? Messy.
