Hello All,

I have some questions about eggs. On 2/22 my female laid 6 large eggs. She kept kicking two of the eggs out of her coil so I took the clutch from her and put them in the incubator. Since then the eggs have been doing excellent, until Sunday. Well one of the eggs she kept kicking out of the coil went bad so I took it out. So my fist Q is;
Is it possible that a female knows an egg(s) is bad so she kicks it out of the coil???

Well so far the remaining 5 eggs are looking great! Perfect white little ovals. So now comes my second Q;
None of the eggs have dimples in them. Is this normal?

I check on the eggs and open the containers every other day, they have perfect humidity, and are incubating at 89-90o.

Thank you for any answers.
