    I candled the eggs tonight and removed 18 eggs. 20 are still going. I’m a bit disappointed that I had so many clear eggs after 9 days of incubation but I’m not surprised at all.

    If you count your chicken coops you have to admit you have a problem. You either have enough or not enough don’t get all caught up with specific numbers.
