Hatching chicks first time

| Hello! I irresponsibly allowed my broody hen to just sit on some eggs without really checking on them the whole time. We are now at the point where they should be hatching… Two of the 4 are characteristically entirely opaque with the air pocket on one side. The other two are basically not at all but do show a dark shaded area… Are you guys of the opinion that they are not developing or is there some possibility that they are? Not seeing veins… I apologize for poor photos and my first time candling [link] [comments] |
