that's fine...I know you were replying...I know what you said...I also was going by sight...I cannot touch the pic and feel those eggs....they looked wet to me...some looked thin shelled...that happens alot at times...and they still hatch...I know..some of the eggs were dented...sometimes it is from being too wet also....king eggs like cals can swell alot when wet......I figured you figured some were infertile from the start....we can tell usually....not always...yea...anyways....
just saying what my eyes were seeing.....

people always say"my eggs are denting" and we always say "cover with damp cloth towel" (actually people say paper towel, but I find they suck more and dry out too quickly,I use cloth on balls)......but we don't always see the dented eggs, and sometimes the people might have them drowning already and they are denting from dieing .....

.......eggs.......some can take anything...and some die no matter what..............

good luck........
