Well, the first pic looks like a normal egg with the baby developing inside, before too long it will be all dark. Not knowing how long ago the egg in the 2nd pic was laid and what color it was to start with, I'm not sure. If both eggs were laid at the same time I'd guess that the second egg is infertile, though I'm not an expert LOL

hey,
the darker was was layed the same time as the pink one but the darker one had more heat. both of them use to be pinker in the middle so i know they are not infertil.
thanks much,

Well then, that explains the difference LOL The one at the higher temp is just developing faster which is to be expected
