I don't have an issue with people cutting eggs open, I have an issue with people saying you should cut them open, or that they cut on day 50 or that it does'nt hurt....

it may kill, it may cause the baby to jump prematurely and not absorb it's yolk sac,, some people have enough moisture that it might be ok, some eggs are kept too dry and opening them may be a bad thing on top of being too dry already, I have already seen baby pics in here this year with a newborn that was wrinkly and dry looking, that weird texture from being from an egg that was too dry ......

incubators with inner boxes with enough moisture and no forrid flies, all goes well....if people are using Hova-Bators with no inner boxes it can be a problem, if forrid or fruit flies are present, it can be a real problem,,,

...anyways....if people cut it really doesn't bother me, if all their babies die, it doesn't bother me.....

have fun Y'all
