7 of the 17 eggs I have in I think are candling clear do I throw them out now? Brasses off with the silver duck wing welsummer only 1 of the 6 seem to be fertile. The light Sussex are above 50 %

same here. out of 31. 19 home layed 9 out 10 silver dorkings hatched. 2 cream legbars out of 9 both very young so i was not expecting  good results. 2 out of 12 copper marans from ebay. i got them cheaper than what the sellor was wanting so i should not have been surprised that most candled clear.

this is the second incubate i have lost eggs checkout 20 only 3 seem ok .its just the time off the yere the winter was long for them i dont think things will be right till may .50 off my own 15 ok and they are in good condition e bay eggs not worth triying at the moment you will loose half 3 hatch 2 cocks 1 hen not a good risk

get one that you realy sure and open the air end and have a look. but only the ones your sure of. leaving them in will not do any harm.

I'd remove now if  they are a showing clear when candled. They're not going to hatch and if you're unlucky as I was last year they might pop/explode. The smell was awful and took ages to clean up.
