Terrible focus but you can still see the difference.

Bad egg

19 have veins 1 was yellow with no veins. They all looked good until we pt the light on them. Oh they are almost 1 month along. My fiancée said we should dissect the egg and I thought it would be a good idea until we opened it and it appeared to be under pressure and kinda squirted out a bit. It didn't smell or anything but just seeing milky white stuff ooze out almost made me lose it... aka barf...

Another interesting thing I noticed is that the eggs have seemed to smooth out from when they were initially layed.

Eek. Too bad about that egg. ;/ And sorry to hear you lost a meal. ;p
Best of luck with the other 19 though.
Oh, and it's nice to hear how interested/involved your wife-to-be is with your hobby, for her to suggest the egg dissection and all.

Oh wow, I didn't know that's how you tell goods from bads, or at least one way of doing it.~ Was there anything else inside?

i did that with a couple of eggs last year, they are sort of full of a thick whitish stuff.
you did it in good time, i left one, then did it, i can assure you it doesnt stay white, and it does smell!!!

Yeah thats what it looked like inside. If it had stunk I would a barfed for sure. Its weird that I have such a weak stomach now for stuff like this and poop.

what do you mean? size? like a fat green grape size wise I'd say.
