Egg Fertility
Finally got round to putting my pics up.... Here are some fertile eggs. All five look fertile but not all of the pics turned out. Here are the best ones:
These are 8 days old, laid on the 25th of May

RE: Egg Fertility
wow ,great pictures Josh ,i wish i could get ones as good as those.they all look good at the moment so dont poke them and only open the incubator once a day to check humidity.easier said than done, im surprised my first ones hatched at all lol.

RE: Egg Fertility
The incubator gets opened for about a minute a day to allow air exchange and to let me check humidity. To get the pics i put the camera in macro mode about 6inches away from the eggs, as advised by terrific.tortoise/TT from RFUK
