airsac visible?

[minhlac]

hey there,

I have about 8-9 days left until hatch, my eggs have already been in the incubator for 15 days.  I candled and all i saw was just that it was all dark with a small clear section close to the pointy end of the egg.  I tried to see an air sac at the rounded end of the egg but I cant see any signs of there being air space. 

Humidity is about 60%.  These are Gambels eggs so should I decrease humidity or just keep it the same?

Thanks.

for the last 3 days of incubation you want to increases the humidity

Yea and you need to use a stronger light to candle perhaps. Also try dimming the light in the room while you candle. them speckled eggs are hard to candle. there should be air sac at the fat end and empty space at the thin end.

Thanks for the info.  Anyone have a picture of their candled egg so I can see what the airsac looks like in a speckled quail egg.  Thanks.
