Another Egg Question

Jacenta · 03-01-04, 06:53 AM

I have a pair of crestie eggs and they're about 2 to 3 weeks old. I found one of the eggs yesterday to be dented in, in two spots. However, the dents are where the air sac ( ? ) would be in the egg... at the top. The egg hasn't gone mouldy, and I can see under a light that there is a little embryo inside. I was wondering if these indents are okay?

i just found one last weekend with a dent in it. iIt looked good when i candled it, though. i kept it anyway..

keep us updated!

It's hard to say if the dents are an indication of trouble or not. As a general rule, I keep every egg until it collapses, blows up or stinks to high heaven. I've had some perfectly healthy babies hatch from eggs that looked like write-offs.

That's pretty much what my plan was.... to keep it until it's completely done for. Thanks!

The best thing is to let it be!! Don't touch it.
