In Reply to: EEEK! what's wrong with my egg! posted by Aesear on May 04, 2003 at 02:54:02:


if it stinks, throw it out. Otherwise, leave it in until it collapses, starts to stink, or hatches.

:my eggs have been doing pretty good up until this point but then I noticed something strange. The top pair were laid about a month ago (the bottom pair only a couple days ago) and while the top left still looks all right (to me anyway) the top right egg is getting that wierd reddish stain that you can see in the picture. I have candled both eggs and they are both glowing a healthy pink/red and I can even see the veins in the stained top right one. I worry about that stain though and wondered if any of you had experienced anything like it. what do I do? also, when should I be able to candle the bottom pair and be able to tell if they are fertile. thanks everyone.
