Well that's easy, my incubator will be full of bought in eggs so it's ok. Although i'm going to cheat and put some extra's at the side of my auto turn until i candle at 5 days.

Has anyone ever candled their eggs that they got by post? I just candled mine (3 days in) and most of the air sacs that i saw were either filled up with fluid, a weird shape or non existant! I only candled about 5, but am feeling a little uneasy about them!
It's going to be really horrible if NONE are any good. *cries*

Min looked like that too, but once I rested them for at least 24 hrs, most looked like normal eggs. A couple had the yolks broken so they wont be anygood but the rest look promising. Candelling mine tonigh that were posted so fingers crossed I get a few good ones. Will be very disappointed like you if none turn out.

Wel i hope both ours work! How long have yours been in the incubator? Mine were rested for about 24-48 hours so hopefully that worked! haha.
I guess i'm even more anxious now, because I candeld one of the two eggs i put in of my own eggs and i saw the veins! So i know they should have something in there by now haha This is horrible waiting!

Seems i was panicking for nothing, I candled a few today, to try and get some of these extra eggs up onto the auto turn, and cannot find a definite empty!! I've got a feeling some eggs take a little longer to develope than others, because i candled them last night and there was nothing in them and then today there's veins! There's even veins in one that has an air bubble floating around! (i doubt that one will hatch of course but it's getting the chance at least)
