Day 12, big baby?

[Erinnlyn]

Wow, this baby seems big to me for day 12, almost 13 I guess. I know it's so hard to see. I just can't capture it with my phone. Can anybody sort of see the shadow of the embryo? I've outlined the two veins I can see. The rest is the shadow of the baby. What happens if a baby grows too fast, does that happen? There's no chance a hen was sitting on it before I put it in the incubator. It did sit on my counter for 6 days before I decided to incubate. It belongs to a hen who sadly got killed by a fox. I've only hatched 3 other chicks, so not a lot of experience! What do you think about it's size for day 12-13? I'm kinda freakin' out! I have a video too, but it won't load.
Thanks!!

To do a video, you have to post it on a place like YouTube, then link it back to here.

That chick is almost 2/3 grown so it's normal to start taking up a large portion of the egg. Seeing veins is good!

Thank you!

No problem. I wish you the best and hope it hatches as a very healthy little chick in just a tad over a week!
