nice. thats awesome.... but i heard exposing them to sunlight, like in the pick is not a good thing. the darkness is good!

Moisture?

When you look at the closed egg containers.......is there any condensation on the sides or top? There should be just a little. Too much makes eggs get moldy or slimey. I've only seen eggs shrivel like that when they are too dry. I could be wrong though. That is just from my own experience. Anyone else with some thoughts or experience in the cause of shriveled eggs? Good job though. They look nice and fertile. Looks like you have some cutie pies in your future

Good deal Rob...did you add a little water around the shriveled ones? All 70 of my eggs are still going strong.
