Sorry about the last one, I blew it.
Unless you want to spend for a vet visit, I wouldn't question fertility yet. I don't know where you live or what the climate is. The redfoots are from a humid climate. Follow the rules and make sure they are being humidified. More importantly, when they lay the eggs, take them as they are dropped and place them in moistened vermiculite and incubate them. Do not turn the eggs at any time after 24 hours old. You can pencil mark the tops when moving them as not to turn them. I prefer not to let them touch each other as one bad one may start thoe other to rot. I'm not sure of the redfoot incubation cycle or preferred temperature. Someone will add on to this later, if not, I'll look it up for you. Good luck! Jim
